newbie here. I think I just got skunked. First hand little buy tournament, I'm KK two off button I raise three bets and get called. flop=892, I raise get called, turn =qh I bet get called and then guy UTG goes all in. I stare at it see the straight possibility and reluctanltly muck. Good or cowardly?

No tonly a str8 possibility, but you have to consider QQ or AA in his/her hand too. This early in the tourny, I think it is wise to muck.

You also have to beware of the dead money early on in tournaments, you can afford to pick your spots early and wait for the maniacs to bust out also.
