Newbie AK butchery

[BruinEric]

So I'm pretty sure I screwed up here. Could anyone advise where and why the decisions I made were wrong? Big question -- should I have folded the flop? Exactly why?

I'm trying to learn NLHE and I'm buying in small and trying to stick with premium starting hands and staying near the Miller GSIH strategy.

Table had lots of action pre-flop. The raiser pre-flop was the most aggressive player on the table pre-flop.

FWIW, Seat4 claimed his call of my All-In was a misclick.

NO ACTION HERE

Couldn't of asked for an uglier flop.

With 5 people to the flop you can really only expect the Queen to save you with an outside shot of the A or K helping, but don't count on it.

With $1.50 left for you and the action in front of you the all-in call is correct since that is all that is at risk

check-fold the flop.
At micro limits, every bozo with a pair, 2 clubs or an overcard is calling. That's what you call an action flop.
Just accept that the flop didn't go your way and give it up.
