    You played it fine.

    BUT. It might not have happened had you have played with a full stack.

    Being so short gives you less leverage for getting your opponent off of his hand.

    Do you recommend buying in with the maximum?

    100%.

    And when you go below the maximum, top-up.

    The more money/chips you have, the more you are able to make moves/get value for good hands/outplay opponents.

    So yep, always play with the max.
