I decided to do my first MTT for fun tonight… I liked it... Might do it again sometime...
Anyways the blinds were getting really high, and were going to move up soon; there were 200 players left with 180 ITM (so it was near the bubble). How does this look? Was this a terrible play?

My thinking was he was a semi-loose player, and I might get a call and build a huge stack; if not I protected my hand from any spade or random straight draw and win a decent pot right there...
Was my play/thinking correct?
