Default Re: did i play this hand correctly

Play to win. You want him to have a worse hand and he did. You got unlucky. ChipSpeak says you have an M of 4 and going into the FT with that stack isn't going to do you much good. This hand is a great spot to stick your chips in and hope to double up for a final table run.

His raise and then your push gives him about a 2.5:1 pot odds to call your shove so his call isn't terrible. What was his stack size?

If you really felt this way, you should want to get all of your chips in every time with the best hand. That is how you win.
