Default Re: Do you call an all-in for nearly half your stack on a draw?

I was actually the SB in this hand, and not the BB!

I thought so.

Was it a bad play on my part?

You raised way too much given the pot size and the level of the tournament. You should also never have checked the flop in the first place--there are draws everywhere on this board, and with nobody raising preflop you cannot expect a bet to occur when you check (and you cannot expect that bet to be big enough to chase anyone, as was the case here). Lead out with a pot-sized bet, and if BB wants to chase his flush draw without the proper odds, let him.
