Bad call?

I was just playing an MTT on Titan, with about 400 entrants. There were about 95 players left, with 50 getting paid. Blinds were 100/200 I think.

I'm in the BB with $6600 and this guy who had just sat down at my table went all-in for his last $2500 UTG and it was folded around to me. He had just sat down so I didn't have any kind of read on him. My guess was that he had a low pocket pair which was basically a coin flip, so I called him knowing that I wouldn't be crippled if I lost.

Should I have just let this go and kept a healthy stack or was the call ok?

You've missed a quite important piece of information out here.

It was a points buy-in, if that's what you're asking.

He had AJs and beat me with a flush if that's what you're asking.

And if I'm leaving out something more obvious, then keep in mind that I'm an idiot and tend to do these things.
