Default Re: stars 22 rebuy AK hand

I don't see any glaring mistakes. The river push looks great; if I'm reading it correctly it looks like this opponent is pot committed by that point anyway.

The only big issue that I see is your decision not to lead the flop, especially when it's checked to you by one of your two opponents. There's ~4000 in the pot, I think a standard lead would be about 2k to 3k.

The argument against is probably that there's a short stacked opponent behind you who could easily push and force you to call for the rest of his stack. I believe there is a decision there, and I'm not positive about the answer, but I think I'd still default to leading given this information. And if he pushes, it's probably a math problem.

Also, you're a great poker player and a valuable and respected person.
