Was I right to make this call? Was I lucky?

This was in a $3+R 25k GTD on Stars. I'd rebought once and added on once at the first break. I'd been playing for five and a half hours straight and it was nearing 6am my time. I finished in the money as well (35th out of 1500 or so).

Yet, on this one table I was on for about an hour and a half I had someone going on about how "lucky" I was.

Is it even possible to be that lucky for that long and to have been tournament chip lead several times, just through luck?

After I made this call, some other guy (kingofchips) said I was a "terrible player" for making the call.

This was what the stacks at the table were like:

Seat 1: BLKJCK73 (27146 in chips)
Seat 2: LMRACER4 (31023 in chips)
Seat 3: Grin77 (42182 in chips)
Seat 4: kingofchips (111415 in chips)
Seat 5: ESPNUT (147290 in chips)
Seat 6: A MAY (60146 in chips)
Seat 7: timski22x (91590 in chips)
Seat 8: Ultra Donk (141095 in chips)
Seat 9: SirJobsalot (145602 in chips)

Here is how it went:

BLKJCK73: posts the ante 200
LMRACER4: posts the ante 200
Grin77: posts the ante 200
