A hand near the bubble
 

Party 20+2 250-player MTT. Top 30 pay, but I'm mostly interested in making the final table, and currently I have an average stack.

I put villian 1 on a big ace or possibly a medium pair, and after his raise I'm sure he's pot committed. No clue about villian 2, but I can afford to lose to him as long as I beat villian 1.

Whats the problem in this hand? Your crushing villian 1, and a coinflip to villian 2.

bad beats suck, but they happen to everybody, dont get results oriented.

Can't really see one...I guess I just wanted confirmation that I played the hand correctly. I'm actually fairly happy with my play in that tournament, although of course I'd be happier if I'd finished in the money.

You're fine dude. If Bill Gazes can correctly call off his stack with AK when 4-handed, you certainly are correct to do it here against much less worthy opponents in a much less scary spot.
