Jesus, if you're that bent on pissing chips away, at least push PF with an M of 4.

The push into 3 players on a flush & straight board is horrific. If SB or BB actually flopped the flush, you don't expect them to bet it out do you? Your "position" means nothing here.

Rarely does the Freakonomics of MTTs involve running bluffs with no outs into several opponents based on the power of my imagination with regard to their holdings

This hand made my eyes bleed.

Does it win some sort of award for worst played hand ever?

Dummy. Why did you play that hand in that spot. I think you were thinking you were a better player then are, and decided to get sneaky. Mind you, I'm not dissing, I think I'm a better then I am, but maybe it would of been wise to kick back and wait for a better starting hand.

I thought I was imagining reading the HH until I read some of the replies. Fold preflop, C/F the flop.

Good god, man (or woman, whatever), what are you looking to accomplish playing K4 from any position, let alone UTG, then pushing into the worst-possible flop for your hand?! Plus, you're not deep enough to get cute if, say, you were trying to rep a monster. Which is the only explanation that's feasible given the action.
