Primo exit hand

edited March 2013 in The Poker Clinic

I had satellited into the Primo and had been playing for about 6hours when this happened.11 players left and i think i was about 6th,could have put me into top 3/final table and then who knows!!
The table had been together for a while Dan was raising a lot and i had played back several times so i don't think the table had any good reads on me,this is my exit hand(27 BB left)
so my questions are

1)should i have flat called?
2)was my re-raise big enough/correct size?
3)Jam all in and maybe get 55 to fold?
4)Just very unlucky/cooler/lost flip/ quad 5's!! i satillited in for £10 be pleased with 11th and move on?
5) Smash up laptop and never play again?

Input would be appreciated

    given our opponents very large open i just jam. 5BB is well worth adding to our stack with fold equity aswell. However i dont think youve done anything wrong either. The 3b call off is just as profitable. You might evenkeep his range wider doing this.

    as opposed to asking is this the right play with AK (which it most likely is), ask yourself.

    what OTHER hands would I go all in with here?


    AA is easy right, is KQ an easy decision? where do you draw the line with pairs? 66 QQ???  

    this will improve your play alot more than wondering if you did the right thing, especially considering you probably wouldn't be questioning this if the turn/river hadn't come fives.. :)

    im never flatting, your opponents bet sizing is terrible, its stupidly big for an open raise so i think jamming pre is a good move, although this players never folding. gotta win the flips at times to win tournies, just ul.
