I am best able to avoid tough decisions on the flop like this by pushing an excellent hand like AK when I have less than 7 BB. Your min-raise pre-flop did nothing, but give BB a reason to call with his two diamonds and hope for a flop like this.

If you don't push with AK in this situation what do you push with?

Although I do appreciate the PF advice, I am very interested in the post flop analysis.

Push. Most likely outcome is that he has one diamond. With so much in the pot, and so little left in your stack, you can't fold TPTK heads up no matter how scary the board is.

Which is why you shouldn't min-raise for 1/3 of your stack. :P

I'm all-in preflop and on the flop. Nuff said.

push those chips in preflop, and once the Ace spikes, reach into the pot and get them back just to push them in again.
