Could I have played this better/differently?

Glenelg

NOT looking for sympathy btw! Just this hand has been bugging me ALL morning.  £1:10 DS.  100+ runners.  I'm currently 20/35.  I've just moved to this table so didn't know much about XX.

you played fine ul, hard to put him on a 4 with 2 out there and calling your raise

yb

your flop bet is wayyy too big, i wouldn't bet any bigger than half pot on that board.

do be fair i would have 3 bet bigger pre.

its not a 3 bet, but i think with limpers you need to raise more

rancid

raise more pre, stick another 2000 on top 

as played lol

Thanks all.  I kinda knew I should have bet bigger pre.  I'm finding tho more & more in some tourneys 2 x is the norm.  It was on the table I was on prior to this table.

if you are 1st to open the action i dont mind a min raise too much (still think 2.5x is better esp as still deep)

But you need to charge people who limp more to see a flop

grantorino

bet more pre, bet less on flop

i would of gone 1.2 k preflop he might just of folded 4 5 but with a min raise u are tempting these hands in and when the flop came u bet over the pot which tells me a your protceting a big hand and if u get called here i think hes only calling u with same hand or better i would of raised more preflop
