I found this hand to be pretty interesting and am hoping some more will weigh in. I see there were some differing points of view before I posted the results. I still believe the pre flop all in was the correct play based on all factors but would love to hear some differing points of view with reasons if any exist. Would also like those who believe my line was correct to confirm. Thanks.
P.S. Apparently the hand converter thinks a str8 beats a flush. Did I do something wrong or is the problem with the converter?
