Did I play this right?

Hi all


Advice please - did i play this hand correctly. I was pretty shortstacked and was aiming for max value. Should I just have taken it down on the flop?

Help!!!!!!

Mid stage of tournament

Blinds are 400/200 - I have 8500

Villain limps from UTG plus 1 for 400 - no reads on him - pretty new to the table - his stack is 30500
I re-raise to 1600 - with  ad kh all others fold so we are heads up

Flop is

th 4d :as:

He checks and I check behind

Turn is  7h

Villain now leads for 2400

I shove for remaining 6974 and he insta calls and shows  8s 9s

River brings  6d and I"m gone.

Now I am not concered about the outcome - I think I was about 80% fav when the money went in on the turn, but do you guys have any different views on it?

Cheers

Jas

pretty marginal either way, probably ok vs poor opponents

generally i will bet this flop because i would with all my bluffs

samuel_9:
all in on the flop

 you and all of us would have played the hand in the same way. but the more we play. we learn its better 2 bet when you hit the flop  it stops them fishing and keeps you in the game. just my opinion

noble1:
u played it ok , just mtt variance you"ll get used to it after 1000 mtts hopefully :).. Dry ish flop so the check flop is ok if you have an idea of villains ranges that he limps with , if your not sure where u are then cbet 1/2 pot ish planning to put rest in on the turn if called.
