No I don't think it's a good play for the following reasons1) You're basically calling an all-in hereYou have to have a monster to do that, or tremendous pot odds, and you don't have either one. Top pair and a Q kicker is not good enough to call. Actually it's not good enough to push in either. Fold the Ace here2) It's early in a tournament. 25/50 blinds are way to early to be pushing that hard. You want to build chips, but not by risking your tournament life.

IMO this is horrible advice. The overbet screams flushdraw, and your call was correct.
