$6 rebuy Boat on river - Your line?

You misunderstood my question. I asked why you didn't raise the FLOP. There's a good chance if you raise the flop, you are going to get it all in by the turn (in this case he would be drawing dead, if he had AT, he would have 4 outs, if he had A3 he would have 2 outs). This is what you want. When you flop a set, you should rejoice if there is an ace on board. Especially in low buy in tournaments, where people just can't fold top pair ever, you have a huge stacking opportunity (and also almost without risk).

Right on. I put in a big bet on the flop and pushed the turn. I wasn't really sure that a flop push would get more of his money in.

Like I said, the pooosh was the right thing to do even though he rivered a bigger boat.

I suck. I really just meant the hand in the original post. I thought you should have raised the flop there. That way you stack his AJ. I think the 2nd hand you described was fine.
