Was it a bad call on the turn with the possible flush? I didn't think he showed anything with that min bet on the flop.

What should my thinking have been from the math standpoint?
Half my stack gone on this one hand, not insurmountable. But I had to call 715 to win 1950. Little less than 3-1 with 9 outs to make the flush on the river and i know my K would be good? so thats 21% or roughly 4-1? I pushed because i though he was weak, it worked out, but probably not played correctly?

Why are you check raising this flop? Come out betting, as you were the aggressor preflop.

This was about my 4th AKo of this tourney. The previous ones where i bet out 3x BB was followed by a 10x bb reraise or more. Probably a little timid on my part.
