If this is just playmoney or a freeroll then I think that's fine but if this is a buyin game then I'd fold this really fast after raising that much and getting raised big time. The edge of AK is being able to PUSH all-in, not call or practically CALL an all-in.

It was play money. Which is why the pot got so overinflated in the first place. I hate that about play money games, but what can you do? You go with the flow...

Incidentally, I just thought this was an interesting beat, that's why I put it up here. Would've put it in the Bad Beat section, only *I* was the one who was the dark horse, so to speak! Not something you always expect out of AK suited... but I definitely was the underdog this time!
