Below is hand that I normally wouldn't play this way. I'd normally re-raise in hopes of taking whats in the pot preflop or stealing after the flop going all in no matter what flopped. I played this differently because of the advice i've gotten here. The mantra "Don't risk all your chips early in the tourney in a risky situation" was going through my head. Was this the correct play? or should I have taken advantage of AKs?
Btw, the very next hand I more than doubled up with AQos.
