Default AK on the button-3 limpers-raise-reraise-push-and an angry ninja

really thought i played this right as i was hoping the large raise would be taken as a small-mid pocket pair and weaker aces and kings would stay hoping to hit top pair. obviously i didn't play this right as i lost almost my entire stack.

any general advice when i find myself in a similar situation again?

maybe this should go on the BBV forum but i just wanted to get a temperature reading on how i played the hand. i have about dozen hands like this already from this weak and started to wonder if its variance or how i'm playing them. thanks for the feedback.

Let's see - you got your opponent to call all in with a dominated hand. I don't see what you could've done wrong here except for the fact you should have known he was going to hit a straight. Easy fold pf for AK with that knowledge.
