I often find myself in situations in MTTs like this:
Where I have a decent sized stack like 30-50bb, it's not near the bubble where there's huge ICM pressure. Someone before me with a large percentage of my stack (like 20-30bb) goes all in for one reason or another
If I have AA or KK I feel happy to go all in without any remorse. Or if they had like a shorter stack like 10-15bb, they're usually shoving with worse hands so I am happy to call
However when I have a hand like AK, AQ, QQ, JJ etc which are still good, I always feel bad after I call which I "think" was a correct call, but I lose the hand and lost like 80% of my stack.
Cuz all of sudden I went in with AK and I lose to some BS hand like 99 or 66 or AQ and now I went from being in a good spot with a nice stack to a 10-15 bb stack and I'm basically push/fold situation
Am I just being results oriented? or is there a strategic way to decide if I should fold hands like AK, QQ, JJ etc
