Hi guys,

The tourney was long ago but i am still wondering if i played that hand correct... Here it is:

Poker Stars, $4.10 Buy-in (50/100 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #10268362

BB: 2,755 (27.6 bb)
UTG+1: 1,980 (19.8 bb)
UTG+2: 2,000 (20 bb)
Hero (MP1): 8,962 (89.6 bb)
MP2: 3,220 (32.2 bb)
MP3: 2,280 (22.8 bb)
CO: 5,749 (57.5 bb)
BTN: 2,390 (23.9 bb)
SB: 1,583 (15.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K

UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 raises to 250, Hero raises to 700, 2 folds, CO raises to 5,749 and is all-in, 5 folds

The squeezing guy was playing rahter TAGish and seems solid. I never saw him doing anything risky... I have a big stack, top 5 in the Tourney, and although I cover the villlain if i shove and loose I may not be able to come back ...

What do you think...

That deep and considering your villain's image, I'll be willing to fold it. In the best scenario you'll split the pot against AK, but usually you'll be underdog against rockets or Kings. You lose just 700 and still have good position to win the tourney.

std fold vs a cold 4bet from TAGs this deep given the position of the pfr and 3b

Average cold4bet range is crushing you, so fold is fine this deep.
