did i make a bad call?

playin in the PokerStars freeroll today i went out in like 525th or something... but anyways, i was playing my best poker i could. then this guy comes to the table and starts bullying. he went all in preflop after my initial raise and honestly i couldnt fold this hand. did i make a bad decision? besides the fact i lost. i still think i made the right call.

K, Q isn't exactly a hand you try to beat a bully with. I would wait for a better hand to do that.

since its a bully pushing you're not likely to be dominated as QK might otherwise be, but likely hands for the stack are Ax or low pair and you won't even be a favorite. Those aren't bad matchups to gamble with if you need to double up but remember there are still two more players to act. Are you sure they are folding?

Its not worth the risk. You may have two overs and he still has about a 35% chance to win. You can find far better situation to get your money in then 1.8-1 favorite at best and very easily behind. How much did you have in chips anyway he pushed for 12k, are the blinds 30-60? If you had anywhere above 1500 this is an easy fold cause your M is still 16!
