on line muti table tournament hand question

[Mountainbiker 0]

I would like your opinion on this hand. It was a bad beat but that is not the point. I think I should have folded but please let me know.Situation is:38 players left. Pay to top 40 so I am in the moneyI am in 6th place with approx. 17000 in chips and I get moved to a new table. The second hand at the new table I get AKo. Blinds are 300-600. I am UTG. I raise to 2200. Table folds to the button who goes all in with 12,000. Blinds fold.I don't know this player and have only been at the table for one hand. The only hands I am really afraid of are AA and KK. Other than that I am thinking coin flip. Since the raise is so much I am thinking he would like to see me fold so I don't put him on AA or KK. Long story short, I call and he has 7,6s. He gets a 6 and I am down to 5000.I think at this point of the tournament it would have been a good idea to fold since I could have been dominated. My thought at the time was that it was a good time to move up and my chances were good.Blaze awaySide note, I finnished in 33rd when I went all in with pocket queens and the same guy called with A9o

At this point, with no read, I'm usually folding. Usually when I move to a new table, I fold the first hand I get unless its AA or KK because I want to observe how the table moves. Who is playing the most pots, who is being agressive etc etc. I usually fold for a round or two until I get a feel who I can push around and who I have to avoid.You were right to call becase you had the better hand, but its still a drawing hand and you were only a 3:2 favorite.

Thanks,My thought was to take the risk and move up to a better position rather than sit back and wait. I think the raise was OK but you are right I should have folded. He could have had a much better hand and I still would have had about 15000 chips.

i would call in that spot unless i had an extremely great read(which i hardly do online)ur already in the money and would still have 5k left if u lost..and there was a small chance you could have had him dominated if he decided to make a move w/AQ or AJ or even KQ although he would have to be really aggressive/loose to do that w/u raisiing from utg..i would have assumed i was in a coin flip situation and w/the 2200 already in and the pot and the fact u had an xtra 5k i would call..
