for me right now thats a weakness... i dont no if i would of folded there i might of, but it all depends on how the chip leader has been playing and my read on him.. if i thought he was trying to bluff well then obviously a call so its hard to say.. tough luck.. im assuming you were still ITM tho.. so thats better than nothing

Nah I wouldn't fold since there is only 1 hand that can beat you. That's pretty unlucky and a tough way to go out after many hours game but now you know there is a final table plus a 1st place waiting for you out there So cheer up and go take down the next 1 Congrtaz
the one thing which you didnt say is how deep stacked were you, anywehre up to 25 - 30 BB i think its an instant call, if you had 50 or above i may have been able to lay it down, but probably not

That sucks, I would have called too. I had something similar happen to me, I was second place and 2st place moves all in. I have AA so I call, he has KK and gets a king

in a tournament, when i was THAT close to winning, i would never call an all-in bet pre-flop. i'd play VERY tight, and not go all in unless i had the nuts.
