Very early hand, no reads. After UTG+2 open raised, I thought about re-raising. But figured that would not be a real good play cause hands like AQ AK are prolly gonna call and a A K Q on the flop pretty much wastes the raise. So I call figuring I can get away cheap if any of the above hit.

Was the turn re-raise too much?? I didn't want a backdoor flush to take me on the river, but did I risk too much too early? it is only Lvl1. Or should I have priced him in and gambled? Or did I make a mistake smooth calling with the BB still in...
