I'm pretty sure i played this horribly, just want some confirmation....

Pacific poker $10 nl

dealt 44 in late position, 4-5 callers in front, call., blinds complete and check, 7 to flop

comes ac4h5c

raised to .50 in front, folded to me, min raise .50 to go, sb raises 1.45 to go, initial raiser folds, i make it 4 to go on top, reraised all in.

I?

actually, you should be the one putting them all in, but as long as all the money goes in i guess it's fine

You have to call this. You're only losing to 55.

agreed, I would have raised much more than min raise on flop (probably at least 3x his bet) and then pushed all in if he raised or pushed.

other stuff:

i was button not mp sorry, 20.77 in stack, other guy had me covered + 4 or 5.

im a low level limit player who kills pacifics limit games, not much of an nl player yet, thats why stakes are so low

reason for min raise was that the game had been stupidly tight after flop ... see now thats a real fish play though?

anyway, i called, sb showed 32, took it down, takeaways, other than im an idiot for playing so low? just plain poor set timing?

I'd raise more on the flop, say pot-it because of all the scary cards that can fall and to price them for chasing...

After that, folding is clearly wrong, especially at this particular game. Too many players push in this spot with a naked Ace and although it's possible that you may be beat here, I think you're just gonna have to pay it off if you are.
