I pull an unintentional angle shoot. Guy goes bezerk.

Angle shooting requires intention, which you didn't have.
That said, depending your M, I can see why someone would think you were. If you were below 5, AT would be a good hand to play a flip for, especially if you knew that someone would shove light. Your offer to allow him to fold just compounded the situation and made you seem more like an angle shooter.
Just accept that the SB can't know your intentions and no one is happy when they bust from a tournament. His reaction to what you did is understandable. Don't let it happen again.

I think if you had a huge hand and knew the rules it would be an angle shoot. If you thought you were UTG then just a mistake and no need to apologize. And I was thinking the SB was partially being an angle shooter but the more I think about it, he was just using the information he had to make a decision, and probably a good decision.

agree...
No probs on your play here.
If dude would have won, he would have been happy as can be.
If you had called with 42o he would have been happy.
He tried to take your blinds on a misperception of his own that you were weak.
tell him to relax and buy him a drink... next hand...

If you had AA I could see his point. Guess he just never folds ATo in any position and thinks it the stone cold nuts?
I echo everyone else thoughts. He's being a cry baby.

As described, not an angle shoot IMO.

the real question is, why do we care about someone playing with 8bb? do their feelings really matter here?
