Default Re: Critique my bust out from this tourney

I guess the preflop raise might be OK to try to steal the pot, but I would just limp.

On the flop, you have a very strong hand with top pair plus flush draw. I might just raise allin, which is kind of a standard move with this kind of hand. The way you played it is probably alright. You were right to push to the minireraise.

You got the money in on the flop a 5-1 favorite, This was a bad beat.

Villain's play was strange and bad. It is pretty standard to raise with AK. I would have limpraised allin in response to your raise.

I don't see the point of the tiny bet on the flop. He should either bet atleast half pot or check. When you raised, he should fold. He missed the flop. If he is going to reraise, he should push and try to take the pot.

Villain limped/called with AK when it was the 4th best hand. After the flop he had nothing and went allin.
