this is:

#1: the wrong forum - use 1-table tournaments
#2: a bad beat post - sry dude, it sucks, but you played it fine. not much to critique here

I'm raising that flop. You want the guy to fold his draw. No need to slowplay the flush at this point in the tournament.

but yeah...wrong forum.

Fold preflop. Limping is not good in this situation, when it invests 1/6 of your stack. I'd wait for high cards atleast and try to steal instead of limp in this situation.

agreed raise the pot on the flop. With how you played, Im considering pushing the turn.

Technically, this is the wrong forum for this question, but the 1-table Tournament forum is filled with push/fold NL tourney maniacs, so I don't know if you'd get much response there.

But here's some advice:

1) Don't open-limp when the blinds are this high. Come in for a raise or don't play it.
2) Don't play drawing hands on the bubble. High card strength is your friend.
3) Pick your battles. You have one player with 1.5 BB and one player with 2.5 BB. Yet you decide to fight the guy with almost 29 BB?
4) I never slowplay in Limit SNGs. Your goal is to take as many chips as possible from your opponents, not dazzle them with your cleverness. Aggression, aggression, aggression is the key.
