IPoker, $0.50 Buy-in (10/20 blinds) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players

MP2: 1,440 (72 bb)
MP3: 1,490 (74.5 bb)
CO: 1,660 (83 bb)
Hero (BTN): 1,470 (73.5 bb)
SB: 2,075 (103.8 bb)
BB: 1,500 (75 bb)
UTG+1: 1,440 (72 bb)
UTG+2: 2,425 (121.3 bb)
MP1: 1,500 (75 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with A :diamond: K :heart:
UTG+1 raises to 80, 4 folds, CO calls 80, Hero calls 80, SB calls 70, BB folds

Flop: (340) 9 :diamond: K :diamond: 3 :club: (4 players)
SB checks, UTG+1 bets 160, CO raises to 320, Hero raises to 1,390 and is all-in, 3 folds

Was it played correctly or should I raise preflop?

Hi,
In this type of buy in you need to play your premium hands very aggressive, so i would raise not less than 320, maybe 400, and just try to get it in on flop.

Hi all,

I like how you played your hand here. I'm absolutely fine with just calling preflop and playing a flop. This way we keep in a lot of worse hands. On the flop we have tptk, so pretty easy get it in to protect/get value from draws/worse made hands.
