I think it's a very reasonable play, I would have played it the same.
You shouldn't be scared of villian flopping a flush, it's very rare HU (especially since you had a heart yourself). You got TPgK and even if he has you outkicked you will very often have outs.

Nope, good play. He knows you have to bet on the flop, if he flopped 2 pair/flush...he'd let you lead out.

Of course he might be just as inclined to call you on a draw, but all-in was the way to go IMO.

During my slump period which I posted about I was losing because I made plays like this.

The play itself is not terrible, but in the context of an SNG like this, yes, it is.

eh...I'm from 'the land of many chips' (PS), what do I know about pushing preflop
