Default AA UTG - EARLY MTT ACTION

(NOT A BAD BEAT POST)

BLINDS 25/50 STILL

LOOSE AGRESSIVE TABLE

HERO = A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

HERO RAISES TO 300
3 CALLS (1 FORMER BIG STACK FROM PREVIOUS ALL-IN, BUT LOST IT ALL NOW BACK TO ORIGINAL AMT (APPROX)

FLOP COMES

K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
What line would you take from here? I thought about pushing here, but ended up betting $1200 (3/4 pot approx)

2 calls - Button (big stack) pushes all-in

an obvious call here, But I wonder if I should have pushed on the flop.

Results - HERO gets drawnout on by runner runner diamonds.

Villain (former Big stack lag) - A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Other Caller - K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Did I get greedy? After reviewing the play I still don't know if played correctly, though If I had to play it again I would lean toward pushing because of the coordinated board.

What would your logic be here..(ignoring results)

Just wandering how to play in the future.

Care to review your post?

Cuz you either made a mistake or you are playing with one freaky deck!

Either way, I think you got greedy.

What were the stack sizes? How can the caller and the board both have the K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]? WHY DO YOU SWITCH FROM CAPS to regular type? Any answert depends on stack sizes . You can't be upset with getting him all-in, although I would have probably taken it down right there if you felt the money in the pot already was significant, and who knows the guy with the K might call anyways.

Sorry, stack sizes about the same - 4-5K.

You're right, I wasn't upset. I had the best hand going in, so initially I felt pretty good about the play.

Would you push w/ an uncoordiated board as well?

You have two K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] - one in the flop and one in the hand. And now you just changed the 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] to 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] - so does that mean there WASN'T a fush draw on the board?

Sorry for the messy post - there was a flush draw. One caller ended up w/ A high flush and the other w/ K high. both had hit pairs and the one w/ A high hit low pair.

I should have a better recollection considering it occured last night.
