Well I was in a hand and I think I made a very late decision to fold but I believed I could get it right but something on the turn and on the river so the late decision to fold what would fly in that hand?

What exactly is a cash game MTT? About the hand you and most other players started with 10BB, which is push or fold territory. If it had folded around to you, any suited ace is good enough to push. However with several players entering the pot ahead of you, you should fold. This ultra short stacked format is not good for learning.

I missed the title it was a real money sit go that was played.
on the hand yes you are sure you should give up before, because another player was raising the pot and I only had a pair of 2 with an Ace kick, I just wanted to see if an Ace hit the river but didn't hit;

I think you have two choices pre-flop, fold or shove. You are small stack, but not by much. The pot holds 150 already, and everybody who limped will likely fold. Chip leader might call, but it would cost them 200+ more chips.

Going 4-5 handed with a weak Ace is dangerous. I think a fold would be fine, as would a shove. But what cards are you hoping for on the flop with your call? The deuce gives you bottom pair and your Ace has the worst kicker. Best hope is two spades, and that only gives you 35% chance of winning the pot.

Under 10BB is often a fold or shove. I think either way here would have been best.

I don't want to come off like a jerk so I will get that disclaimer out of the way first sentence but in my opinion you played this hand very badly from start to finish. You have to fold this hand pre flop especially since you are only at 9 BBs. I think a case can be made for jamming but this is not the strongest hand to jam and we have a raise and a caller in front of us. Better to just fold this and wait for a better spot to open jam at the pot pre.

On the flop you get bottom pair but other than a backdoor you have nothing else. This should be a fold right here as well as you are beat so much of the time. The turn comes which is another spot that you should have folded in because you are never that good here. A case can be made I guess for continuing as we are so short by now and do have a pair which is better than nothing. Still though, facing two streets of betting I am folding with bottom pair in this spot.

The river comes and outside of an ace or 2, this is the best card in the deck for you. Now it is a little less likely someone else has a king. We are also down to 85 chips at this point so this is the one street that I can be on board with (as played) making the call. Your hand improved here by the board pairing which hurts opponents chances of having a bigger pair. The fold on the river is bad, I doubt you were good there but if I am calling the flop and turn bet and then the board pairs on the river then I am calling that river bet being as small as we were.

Fold every time for me with a raise before you, if i had of called there would be no way i was carrying on with that King on the flop for sure. You just wasted a load of blinds calling this down.

You spent 2/3 of your stack in one hand. There was very little chance. It's a charity.
