    Default Call or fold to this all-in bet on the flop?

    Earlier in the tournament this same situation happened between MattyButts and another player. MattyButts calls the PF raise and then goes all-in on the flop. It was then folded to him/her.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG (t955)
    MP (t2380)
    CO (t1805)
    Hero (t3655)
    SB (t1915)
    BB (t2790)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, Q.
    UTG calls t150, MP calls t150, CO calls t150, Hero raises to t750, 2 folds, UTG folds, MP folds, CO calls t600.

    Flop: (t2025) 3, 5, T (2 players)
    CO bets t1055 (All-In), Hero ??????.

    I felt like I was holding the best hand since I have seen this before, and assumed it was a bluff.

    I was just wondering what ya'll would do in this situation.

    standard play is to fold, no one has your read but you. if he has a pair you're about a 3/1 dog, worse if he has something like AT. You are getting a decent price but still you need to be pretty sure you're ahead.

    What I don't get is how you know he was bluffing the first time.

    The fact that he has called half his stack pre-flop smells like a big hand to me.

    You could be completely crippled and dominated here, so easy fold for me.

    I wouldn't rely on the bluff read you have there either. He could have held a monster there too, in which case he's making a risky but somewhat profitable play if his opponent misses the flop or catches tp.

    I never said I thought or knew he/she was bluffing the first time. If I did say something like that I didn't mean it. I have no idea what he/she had earlier when he/she did the same thing earlier in the tournament. All I was saying that I felt like it was a bluff on the hand I was against.

    In that case fold. It's probably a fold at other buyins too. You may be folding the best hand but IMO it's not worth the chips that it will take to find out.
