Critique this hand please... AA in the money with 2nd biggest stack

Okay, this time with the result. At the end I'll also indicate how the hero and villian finished the tourney.

....

















The villian had QQ. His other victims had 99 and A6s.

He finished 10th

I finished 71st. Looking at some hand histories it seems my play bounced back pretty well.

If it makes you feel any better, he played the hand even worse than you.

#2. The call of the push is completely atrocious. This is as easy of a push as it gets.

Stack sizes may not allow for this-- the repush may not be big enough to reopen the betting.

Preflop raise was too small after the 1600 raise and call.
Calling down after the flop doesn't strike me as that terrible since you're WA/WB to a queen or other holding.

That is the nature of NL. One mistake, one misread, one momentary lapse of reason and your out. I have played nearly perfect poker numerous times and then make a [censored] play to lose my stack and bubble.

It happens.

push after he reraised your raise

[Masterhp]

you cant controll what the flop is going to be... you have to make the right decision(which would be to push after villians reraise), and let the odds work theirselves. Its poker, cant make everything go in your favor no matter how hard you try.
