I should have called with my re-raise - or just called his raise in the first place - I did not see the all in on my right.

I would have won with a flush. COMMENTS?

Final table.

Arturo J came in 4th - I made second. Roman was out at 3rd.

Hi there

though I am fairly new I would like to comment.

I think you made a good fold.. against AK you were in a coinflip and the K did came. Also with JJ you cant predict you will get a flush in the end.

So you could have lost half your stack there.

On the other hand if you pushed all in first I am not sure if AK would have called (putting his tournament life on the line)

afterall you made a great finish

Thanks - I agree the fold was a good one. The playe was a call or all-in - the raise did not work out.
