I think you played it fine. Those reraises are difficult to judge in 5+1s. I think you are good often enough here.

I do not know if raising would accomplish a lot at that buy-in level. If it thins the field successfully then you likely have only better hands against you in that spot. No?

I've been playing these and beating these but it seems like whenver I get a hand like this in the blinds (an AK, KQ suited, AQ) I raise it up and I still get 4 callers. Then a 8 4 3 flop occurs and people with Q 8 are re-raising someone with 34 suited and a whole mess breaks out.

I just can't see how I can play weakly with top pair, second best kicker when I think I can rule out AK.

Makes sense to me.
