Hawk Girl had no business in the hand to begin with and ended up with the 3rd best hand.
You playing the hand for only 8k more is a good play. It was costing you 8K to win 44,400 with a perfect flop. I am not crazy about your all in on a draw. But if you hadn't pushed all in then you would have had to called an all in. So if your going to chase the flush you might as well be the first to push. Now that we know what everyone had you had the best chance to improve.
Good job on the high finish.

The problem...the people on these online tourneys aren't like me or TJ Cloutier. Though themove you made in theory sounds great...but these players will call you with AK or worse because they don't understand how to play MTTs. "surivival" isn't as important to them...as is "getting it allin"
I probably just would have folded preflop. that raise cost 10 percent of your stack. Let these guys knock each other out..and then open up when it gets down to 3 or 4 people.

Again, my hope was that my (close to, slightly over) pot size bet on the flop would get both hands to fold. I didn't just bet out because I knew, with my hand, I would want to see all 5 cards. Does anyone think this was a fishy play? I didn't catch any heat for it at the table, and did go on to finish 2nd/1000 for a nice payday, but I rarely play MTTs and wanted to get some input as to my play.
Thanks in advance guys...
