Hi am new on here been playing online since March trying to grind on FRT to build a reasonable starting BR

would like opinions on my play have played tight into money on 888 FRT

am in BB with AK suited blinds 10 & 20k and my stack is 152 778 after posting BB there are about 33 players left and I am about 20th. I feel should shove all in as have less than 10 BB left. Only me 1 caller and SB left in,

I shove SB fold the call near cut off calls all in with J10 s also spades same as me he hit 2 pair to knock me out.

My question was I right to shove or should I just have played tight to get higher up the the money ladder. Thanks opinions appreciated.

Correct shove you were just unlucky

Everybody will eventually run worse than they thought was possible. The difference between a winner and a loser is that the latter thinks they do not deserve it.

You had him beat preflop, even if you had aces he would have beat you with two pair. You can't beat variance, just say nice hand and move on.

you shouldn't play tournament just to get a bit further in the tournament if you play them you should play them in a way that maximises your chances to win it.

Best mtt result this year: 379th in Sunday Storm for $ 543
Best ever (online): ( biggest single cash ever $ 2258.40 in a $ $ 11 deepstack mtt for 2nd place)
Goal this year get my bankroll to $ 5000 through mtt's and stt's

I mean it's AK. You have everything beat, cointfliping expect of AA and KK. And even against KK you have 30% chance to win... how can you fold that?
easy allin..

you should have punched the guy who called so he knows he must not call against you in future donkaments. maybe he's gonna tell his friends too not to call your raises too, which is even better.
