Should I have just folded? Bubble Play

[FMMonty]

This is a hand that has seriously been bugging me for a while now, Can’t find the hand history but I can remember the hand.

PokerStars $210 + $15 turbo

4 left

Blinds 200/400 Ante 25

Button - Player A (5,000)

SB – HERO (2,500)

BB – Player B (5,100)

UTG – Player C (900)

Player A is a superb player, Player C is relatively tight. I’ve been stealing the blinds of Player B for the last three hands)

This hand comes up in the above situation. Player C & A fold. I have AQo, I push all in. Player B then calls with 89s, but he says he calls out of principal.

This hand has been bugging me, how wrong do you think my play was? I talked to player A and Player B after, and I’ve played against player A many times and he is a fantastic player and said I should have just mucked them as well.

I see why I should of mucked them, but I’m not convinced.

Very keen to hear your views?
