Fold or Call?

This is my first hand posting so I hope I get it right and that I give all the info.

Very early in tourney and pretty basic fold or call question I think.
I called but I am concerned that risking the tourney on this was the wrong play. Simple fold and move on to next hand would be way better.

Full Tilt Poker Game #10410409723: $5 + $0.50 Sit & Go (78686164), Table 1 - 20/40 - Pot Limit Omaha Hi - 11:08:23 ET - 2009/02/03

This hand history makes no sense with your comments above it. You never called. Your tourney was not at risk (you had DennyAdams covered). WTF?

*sigh*

My bad. I will rephrase the question.

Hand played well? Hand played unwell?

Discuss.

Thank you

HTF do you put your money in with A's and win.....that's bullshit. I thought PLO was a worst hand preflop wins game?

That being said....jam everytime, take your chances (unless there's 5 callers all-in in front of you). I'll take a race everytime with a single suited A's.

Of you can get your stack in preflop with shitty aces then do so, especially in a tourney
