Out in THREE hands...

I went to the club last night to play in a Texas Holdem Tourname w/re-buy, and was really looking forward to playing, as I had a great day online....

FIRST hand, we had two all in's! Guy to my right, on the small blind flops two pair K's and 8's, and moves all in. He gets called by another player who has KJ, giving him ONE pair of K's..... Turn comes J.... 1 hand.. one player out....

THIRD hand, I'm on the button, and I call a small raise with A2's. There are four players in the hand....
Flop comes A 2 9... I flop two pair! There is a 200 Bet ( blinds are 25/25 at this point! ). I call! Guy in the Big Blind comes over the top for 600! The original raiser calls... and I call....
Turn comes a 3... board is a rainbow.... I move all in.... the Big Blind has A9s.... I'm done!

I'm not sure I should have called, but I knew I was taking a gamble with that hand. He was the Big Blind... so it was difficult to put him on that hand. I actually figured he had 92 giving him 2 pair that were lower. I've played with him many times, and he is an aggressive player that will bully from position. I figured the Aces were a dead issue, or a one outer at best...

The SAFE play would have been to fold, as I would still have 1750 of my original 2500 chips... I just could not put him on that hand.... I made a bad read!
