There are two reasons I hate the fold. Firstly, There are already chips in the pot. Secondly, Having the additional chips at that point in the tourney should give you a huge advantage as you should be able to use them as leverage to control the table and take a huge stack to the FT. You also eliminate a very good player from the competition and that has value as well. Not to mention I just dont fold AK in tournaments unless the situation is extreme. I believe in tournaments you have to attack and constantly push to gain chips.
