Nothing fancy here. Just wondering if this fold is too tight?

Easy fold I think.

Not easy for me, necessarily, but like I said to you on IRC I think it's a definitely fold. Alot of Ax and Kx players like to do that move, and with that in my mind I don't like not being able to maximize the pot should i flush up. I want better opportunities where I know that - at the very least - if I hit my outs I can gouge it. Muckmuckmuck.

I say good fold. I agree with Supa about the Ax hand. More importantly you never know when the Ax hand is also working on the nut flush.

I would fold as well. This early in the SnG it probably isn't worth it and just let him take your blind.

The only thing I MIGHT do differently is try to get creative by raising him. If he folds, cool. If he calls, it will likely buy you a free river card to try and flush up since you are in position. This is pretty risky obviously because even if you do flush up, you don't have the nuts.
