Default Very late in 3$ rebuy, How would you play it?

This hand happend when their where about 100 left and average stack was about 200k, i'd been playing for about 6 hours.

Im at a tight table, and decide to raise AJ from EP.
Villian has re-riased everytime hes had AK so i know he dosnt have AK.
I bet small on flop trying to keep pot small.
And i call re-raise becuse the only hand i think he could have that beats me is AQ.
And all the min bets where OBV block bets, if he re-raised thoose i would fold.
I also picked up a club draw on turn, which was another reason for the "blocking" min bet.

Id love to hear any1's comments or thoughts about this hand.

I'd value bet the river. AQ+ would surely bet turn.

Thats a tuff spot. Those rebuys are disgusting. I probably play the same.

There is 134k plus the antes in the pot preflop. You bet 32k. From my experience in these $3 rebuys (at this stage of the tourny) you are begging for a re-raise. I would have insta-pushed on the re-raise. What exactly were you hoping for when you opened the pot? If you were just trying to steal the blinds and play it safe otherwise then fold to the flop raise. You wont get to many better opportunitys than this to take down a good sized pot.

I think your flop bet showed weakness and this is not a small pot in relation to the stack sizes. I would have bet 60-80% of pot. Then at least you have a bit more of an idea of where you are at if you do get reraised as you have shown stenght. And after turn and river I never min bet. I dont understand the use of a min bet. I feel if you want to bet, bet properly to either value bet and build the pot or bet to thin the field or win pot there and then.

Yeah, ur giving MP1 around 5.5-1 when you bet flop. Thats asking for a reraise really.

Asking for a reraise is fine if you know how you will respond to it but you clearly don't.

Flop - bet bigger or fold. Reraise - shove or fold.
Turn - check or bet bigger.
River - bet as AQ would have bet the turn.

There has to be antes, so on the flop there's like t150k+ in the pot. Betting t32k into this pot 3-way is at best suicidal.

At this juncture you have t360k left. Bet 112k (7BBs). If anybody comes along you know you're beat and can get away.

The way it played out you call the flop-raise for 25% of your remaining stack, without any knowledge of where you're at. That's ill-adviced. Fold or push.

I'd lean towards folding, since you already mangled this hand with your way to small c-bet.
