Sitll learning - so comments gratefully accepted.

Bounty hunter. My first thoughts were - maybe I should have gone all-in myself and given the other two a decision.  Second thoughts - fold to the all in and save my chips. Third thought - I did the right thing, as I could won two bounties.

    When it gets to you first time shove or fold, NEVER flat call as you create dead money like here and could potentially fold best hand.

    calling is your worst option

    shove >>> fold >>> call imo

    Yeah, don't ever flat call a decent sized pot, with maybe the odd exception that you're trying to induce someone behind trying to get you off your hand and you have AA.

    But yeah don't flat because it basically becomes a massive raise pre, when you're gonna have to continue playing poker post flop when 2/3 of the time you're gonna miss.

    I re-shove.

    As you played it, with all the action, I think you have to fold and be really annoyed you threw away 860 chips because you're either gonna be crushed by a bigger Ace, crushed by a big PP, or flipping with smaller PP
