Default What would you do?

Ok, so it is a small money tournament but after 3 hours of playing, it was annoying to lose this way on the final table.
Should I have just gone allin as soon as the flop came down??

I would post this in BBV...?

AS for going all-in on the flop - go look up thead about "Way ahead.." blah blah by shaundeeb (1st or 2nd page, here, it's recent) and read it top to bottom paying attention to Ansky's posts.

Yup can't help but agree, I don't see what the issue is.

He might not be the best player in the world, and was excited about 2nd pair + flush draw..just bad luck that he hit. Can't see anything exceptionally wrong with your play. Could've bet a bit more on the flop but again bit of a non issue IMHO

Use a converter

This is a bad beat, looks like you did everything right.

Yeah cheers, I'll try and work out how to use the converter before my next post ;o)
Mainly I just wanted confirmation that I didn't do anything supremely stupid.
Just another bad beat. Been getting a few of them lately....

The better you get - the MORE you will be getting them (as opposed to delivering them) since you will be putting money in with the best hand more often.

That's a cheery thought Mornelth. I do see your point though.
