Depending on how much the limits were in this round. You have 25,000 in chips, how many chips did the re-raiser have? Was he a short stack- about to go all-in or did he have a signifigant amount to cover the hand? If he was extremely low on chips than I would re-raise him and try and put him all-in completely in hoping to knock him out. HOWEVER, If he had equal chips to yours, or even close to the same amount, then I would DEFINITELY fold on the flop. Most of the time when a player three bets you (especially at the final table of a tournament), he's holding either AA,KK, AK, or at the very least, AQ. None of those holdings would give you the best hand with this flop. I wouldn't want to call him down in hoping that he had something like JJ or any other inferior pair. He's more likely to have the stronger hand. My advice would be to fold. 4 POKER
