One tournament hand. Comments?

BB is tight and aggressive. My M is ~10. Standard preflop raise has been 2-3x. I was planning on moving in on the flop, but when it came all diamonds with me holding the Ace of diamonds, I went for the check-raise. Stupid move? Should I have moved in Preflop?

You could have pushed or raised preflop. But you definitely didn't play it horribly.

i would rather just push the flop than check raise. what if he checks behind and the turn is a little black card? then your in a tough spot. just make it 450 preflop and push the flop.

I think i'm open pushing that flop more often than check/raising unless you KNOW opp will bet at it with any 2 cards. Given your read that opp is tag i probably push flop. The way you played it if opp has a 9 or 2 or pp then he calls whereas he may fold those to a push.

yeah i prefer pushing the flop here as well, or making a large bet at it anyway. I know you have a ton of outs, any diamond, 2 overs, running cards for the str8, but youre still drawing. I would prefer to take down smaller pot than have all my chips in on a draw.
