Default I finally figured it out

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t25/t50
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1835
UTG+1: t3265
MP1: t1990
MP2: t1030
MP3: t2160
Hero: t3075
Button: t3765
SB: t3640
BB: t6325

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
4 folds, MP3 calls t50 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t75)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t200</font>, 2 folds, BB calls t150 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t325)</font>, MP3 calls t150 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t475)</font>.

Flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t625, 3 players)
BB checks, MP3 checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets t450</font>, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to t900</font>, MP3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in t2875</font>, BB calls t1975 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t4400)</font>.

Turn: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t6375, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t6375)


River: T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (t6375, 1 player + 1 all-in - Main pot: t6375)


Results:
Final pot: t6375
<font color="#ffffff">Hero showed Jh Js</font>
<font color="#ffffff">BB showed Ks Ah</font>


To consistently win I realized that I need to start making plays like this guy did. I get my money in as a huge favorite far too often and I believe this makes me a target to show other players they should play like retards because they can, and will get lucky. If I start putting my money in as 25% or less more often, I believe it's likely I'll be the best poker player ever.

Please explain how calling 2k being offered 3:1 with ace high (25%) is pot committed? I don't expect a real answer I just don't understand it, who doesn't throw away ak in this spot especially as played?

He had 6 outs, you only had 2. Learn how to do math before you try to talk strategy, fish.
