This is during a 2,75$ tournament late stage(ITM)
I am 20/207 43881 Tourn avg:21k

Villain 6(QQ) is playing 39/9 trough 14 hands
Villain 7(A5) is playing 73/31 3betpf 19(7/39) trough 39 hands...
Vil.6(Mosh)
Vil.7(Vitoria)

If it wasnt for the stats this would be a snap fold, but i was so crazy to bust Vil.7...But I still managed to fold.
What would you do?A call would make me chip leader by far...
And independent of the result of of the hand do you think it was a good decision?

If I'm playing disciplined poker, it's not hard to fold both pre-. It's not just a matter of playing the hands but of playing the tournament. At this buyin level, I don't need to play big pots with marginal holdings when I have a comfortable stack. In general, it's the weaker players who should lean in that direction. Since I assume I'm not one of them, I'm looking for situations what will let me chip up with less risk.

Agree again with what Arjonius said :)

I think it is an easy fold with more than 50BB stack, there are so many more better spots with this stack.

Whenever you have a chance to be the massive chipleader you have to at least consider gambling. That said, AQ is rarely going to be in good shape 3 ways, you're usually crushed by one or behind on a flip and sharing outs. I'd be comfortable playing for stacks with villain 2 but usually not both and look to get it in here with AK, JJ+.
