I have just started to learn SNG & MTT strategy, and have been playing for about 3 weeks. This hand occured last night and has been driving me mad all day trying to decide whether I made the correct call.
Even though I moved table 6 times during the tourny, this was the first hand against villian, so no stats or reads.
Full Tilt Poker Blinds 400/800 Ante 100 - No Limit Hold'em
UTG1: (52,915)
UTG2: (12,874)
MP1: (37,320)
MP2: (15,080)
HERO: (28,213)
CO: (20,224)
BU: (28,111)
SB: (51,512)
BB: (23,751)
Dealt to HERO [A 
Q :heart:]
(2,100)
UTG1 calls 800, fold, fold ,fold, HERO raises 2,400, CO calls, fold, fold, fold, UTG1 calls
FLOP [8 J 
9 :heart:]
UTG1 bets 50,415, and is all in, HERO calls 25,713, and is all in CO folds
TURN [K :diamond:]
RIVER [2 :diamond:]
UTG1 shows [9 
J :spade:]
HERO shows [A Q :heart:]
At the time I felt it was a good call, but, on reflection, I feel I should have folded and waited for a better hand/opportunity given that I was in no immediate danger from the blind levels and had no need to chase a draw.
I would value your opinion
Thank-you
