    Seat nine was playing weak, seeing lots of flops, this hand came up in the $10 deep stack on PS this morning.

    I know I got terribly unlucky based on the result, but was this the right move?

    U have the nuts on the flop, your goal is to get it all-in.

    Obviously the right move, you got your hand in as a huge favorite. That was a seriously tough beat. Pokers a dynamic game, better luck next tourny. That play will reap more success than not....

    Zen,

    Just a followup, I ended up cashing in this tourney regardless of this bad beat and another couple of hours later after I re-built my stack back up to above average.
