[QUOTE="KK_Cowboy, post: 326527, member: 1140"]
I am in a 1+.10 MTT last night.  10 hands in I get KK and blinds are 15/30.  Player in seat 2 raises to 60.  The two between them and myself each call and I raise to 600 (50% of my stack).  Maybe a little high but was the right move here.  Person in seat 7 goes all in for approx 900, seat 9 calls, seat 10 re-raises all-in for 1180.  Seat 1 actually calls the 1180 and so do I cuz well, almost have to.  Seat calls the 1180 and finally the flop comes.  Flop is 237 all different suits.
 
The player in seat 9 re-raises the rest of their chips and seat 1 folds.  
 
4 way showdown goes as follows
 
Seat 7 A7
Seat 9 A2
Seat 10 AK
My hand KK
 
Sure enough my hand gets beat by a 2 on the turn.  I don't know about some of you, but I am getting really sick of people calling with absolute garbage when any half decent poker player would know there hand is very most likely dominated.  I know bad beats happen, but to be quite honest I just can't understand the logic, or lack there of with some people.  
 
It's as if they watch poker on TV and see Gus Hansen and his questionable plays/calls/bets whatever you wanna call them.  At least Gus uses some math and logic when he makes some of the calls he does.  
 
I know the two in seat 9 and 1 likely called because of pot odds, but my question is where does pot odds draw the line?  I dunno, I guess I just don't see how people can go all-in with A7-A2 when it should be obvious they are way behind.
 
(Footnote:  I know at least some of you will say I am whining and perhaps should just save the bad beat stories since everyone has them.  To be honest I don't mind being beaten with a respectable hand.  A2 vs KK in this case simply does not qualify as respectable)
