Unless you knew the villain was a tight player who would only reraise with AA or KK, your call was correct. You were getting nearly 2:1 and those were the only two hands you'd be far behind.

Folding would have left you short and in bad shape. Only if you were very near the bubble and more concerned about making the money than winning would you want to consider folding and letting shorter stacks get knocked out first.

i agree to make a lay down there would be wrong unless playing against a very tight player...or at least if you figured he was extremely tight. Tough break

Thats a tough fold for sure I would probably have to lay it down though as hard as it is to lay down AK

Assuming villian isn't a total nit, folding is bad and results-oriented.
