Please feel free to provide critique or point out if I done something wrong about how I play it.

Bad game.
Pre-flop raise should be more, and it was necessary to put a 3bet 16-20BB
In this case, the CO could fold.

Thanks for the pointer, sanych. I guess I still need more lesson in bet sizing.

you got stacks in ... its just a bad beat man.

Honestly post flop you just try to get your money in, which you did, result was garbage because the set of 5 got lucky.

Pre-flop you need to raise more, I'm not sure it would have helped in your situation, maybe 55 fold, I'm not sure.

Don't limp with aces UTG 6-Max. Always raise in my opinion.

limp, min 3-bet?

My best advice is... don't get sucked on by quads. You need to learn to not let this happen and you'll be all good.

Or at least hit our quads on the river

Don't mind the limp utg. Your raise to 14 should be substantially higher. You want to keep them in the pot but if they fold (rare) then you win a small pot. But 1 or both are calling if you make it 25-30.
You were very unlucky there. I also prob lead on the flop.
But if you had raised more pre, it could be check shove the flop.

Stop turning your hand face up preflop.

I would be raising pre-flop. If the money doesn't go in then bet 70% pot on the flop and try to get it in at this point; both kings and fives would likely stack off, particularly at these stakes. Get the money in good and if you get sucked out on turn or river there isn't much you can do.

Maybe a bigger PFR..However, you're still not getting a lot of folds at this level. Just a cooler.
