Turn: 3♦ (T8,600, 2 players)

I am about 20th of 32 left. 27 places paid. What is the best move here? We are behind a lot of hands he can raise with, but do we give up? And if so, where?

Spoiler

Hero raises to T6,696 (all-in), MP calls T2,796

River: 9♥ (T21,992, 2 players, 1 all-in)

Total Pot: T21,992
MP shows A♦ K♥ (two pair, Aces and Kings)
Hero shows J♠ A♥ (a pair of Aces)

MP wins T21,992

Pre-flop is for me a push/fold spot for 17bb effective and most of the time I would shove. You are not deep enough to play post-flop I think and this way you get him under pressure as well. Now he’s doing it with you.
