i understnad calling the flop because its just futile to try to protect a hand in such a huge pot

Normally yes, but against the UTG that StellarWind described? I think often he will 3-bet a worse hand and help with the protection.

This is a very good point. Also it is possible that UTG might fold. Pushing out AK is probably too much to hope for and this was a key factor in my at-the-table decision to play for the value call-raise. But the pot is growing so large that even eliminating AJ or some lower ace would be huge.

My flop play is just an interesting mistake.
