I wouldn't have even called with Ace little here. Again, you are probably dominated, and why risk it? There was no money in the pot (prior to the all in). Why not wait until you know you are a big favorite instead of hoping you arne't too much of a dog and relying on "luck?"
I guess it just REALLY surprised me to see those cards when they were turned over. After watching what looked like such a skillfull heads up battle for a half an hour or so, I didn't expect to see either of these players call all in as dog unless they got trapped or they both had really big hands. Yes, I realize 60/40 is not a huge dog, but still - the entire tourney was on the line, and it could have been a lot worse.
Regarding the all in bet, I think your logic was fine, nutbag. I probably would have just raised after he limped in though - Again, the blinds were quite small relative to your stacks. Then, if he came over the top of you (meaning he was indeed trapping you and you were in bad shape), you could fold and still be alive.
