If you want to tell me, I should have used the converter:
I tried, but it cannot convert the hand histories of the site the hand was played at. I think, I posted it in a readable format, though. If there's anything else wrong, it would be nice, if you could be a bit more specific.

I didn't mean the converter, I mean the hand. The only thing that could have been done differently is to open push, but AK is so far at the top of an opening range from the button that I actually like just raising here and trying to encourage someone to push over the top. It's unfortunate that they had a hand this good, and you lost the race, but the hand played itself. All the money was going in one way or another, and you were going to lose.
