always bet nuts?

[hibees8]

30p tourney 16 left 1500 starting chips.
I have 2700 - below average - two 7000 stacks already at table
blinds 50-100
UTG limps
I call (QcJc)
2 more limpers then button raises 100 sb folds bb calls everyone else calls
5 players - pot 1100
flops 10h Ks Ah
UTG checks
I bet 1100 next player all in (have me covered) BB all in also - both have me covered I call
first raiser 10 10 - BB flush draw
the trip 10s fill up.
MY QUESTION:
did i play it wrong - I knew I had flopped the nuts but with the texture of the board and the number of players I knew it was very likely I would get out drawn - would I have been better to check and try and keep the pot small?

you should quit poker entirely until you realize what a stupid question this is.

you are terrible on many levels.

Bully - in a cash game i agree it is a stupid question - but survival is important in tournaments more than the correct maths play. It was very likely i would be outdrawn.

You are just flat wrong. Survival is over-rated.

lol

how am i wrong - i just said survival is important. I'd rather keep my chips for an 80-20 situation than one where i probably have a 40-50% chance.

Dude. You don't know anything about tournament poker. Tell yourself that 50 times.

Now LISTEN.

1. You are better than 40-50% to TRIPLE UP in this hand.

2. If you can really create 80-20 situations all day long by all means do so. I'll see you on the rail b/c you blinded out. 80-20s don't come along very often. BTW, if you always pass up your "smaller" edges when you do finally win your 80-20 you will have blinded down so much you won't have won [censored].

Stop being silly. You got all your $ in with the nuts and got unluckly. Way more often you triple up and don't come around here posting nonsense questions.

tell you what

bookmark this page, when you get better at poker, open this back up and youll laugh at how stupid this topic is

summary:

never fold the nuts
never try to keep the pot small with the nuts
survival is overrated

[hibees8]

lol whatever man - u need to chill. maybe i need to get a life for posting the question - you definitely need to get one for answering.
You are probably right - I just felt my hand wasn't getting any better and it was a bad situation to put it all in
