My opponet moves all in with A-Ko, I call and am eliminated when nothing hits,were the blinds too low for me to call the all in or is A-9s strong enough to make this call heads up?

I don't get it, why did you call the all-in? You have to call T1200, and the pot is now ~T1630, correct?

I'm not great at NL but I think I'd fold this. And I'm pretty sure that's the correct play. I don't see you having much equity against someone who would go all-in preflop. What hand ranges do you put him on?

Also, you won't get much of a response in this forum. Are they referring you over here (from MTT forum) or something?

EDIT: Lots of NL posts recently, I'm not complaining

You probably should have opened with a raise instead of just calling the bb, then fold if he pushed back.
