I think I played this hand really badly.
Thinking I should of pushed preflop after he re-raised but he seemed like a tight player.

No Limit Holdem Tournament
9 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG GrindingTime (39068)
UTG+1 plentymoney (2815)

CO Budlgtsiper1 (9320)
BTN ledav888 (10216)
SB NikolajSG (23521)
BB Hero (9422)

Blinds: 200/400 Ante 50

Pre-flop: (1050, 9 players) Hero is BB
3 folds, tsinnmann raises to 2000, 4 folds, Hero calls 1600

Flop: (4650, 2 players)
Hero checks, tsinnmann bets 4000, Hero folds

Final Pot: 4650

tsinnmann wins 8650 ( won +2650 )
Hero lost -2000

Hello Justkyle88,

I would definetely push preflop here. I actually push ak here, completely disregarding my reads, since ak is too strong to lay down with such small stacks. Your opponents' raising range must at least include AQ, or he is tighter then tight, which just seems unlikely to me. Remember that your reads arent very dependable, since you didnt see your opponent play that many hands. A read on someone that he is tight, may just mean that he had a bad run of cards.

Thanks.
I didn't think of it in a way that he may be having a bad run of cards.
I'll defiently take that into consideration next time.

Hi justkyle88, I agree with Nick entirely. On the flop, we have 4+3+3 = usually 10 live outs against weak overpairs, and sometimes we are ahead. So I would opt for a check/raise all-in as played.
