Yes I agree with above posts, I either should've folded or pushed when I was to act. But I didn't. So let's look at how it went down, I bet about 3x BB.
When he re-raised me all-in I should've considered the consequences. If I won the hand, I'd have a decent stack but like DJvinson said, it's not worth the risk bubbling out.
I called his bet mainly on me putting him on a fairly wide range and not considering that even if I was ahead it wouldn't be more than 60/40 which isn't worth risking the bubble imo. (?)
His talking kinda influenced me, I called and he flipped over AKs. "told ya you shuda folded".
I looked the guy up, he's been a pro since '05 so he knew what he was doing: Stieven Razab-Sekh. (makes me feel better i actually lost to a pro as this was my 1st casino live game haha)

It was a nice experience though, I'm only 19 years old and I was the youngest at the final table, made some incredible nice plays if I may say so myself, didn't expect to come so far to be honest.
Too bad about the bubble play - but I guess you learn from your mistakes.
PS: @ Fnord: yes the rake is kinda huge
Anyone has advice on books/articles or whatever you can do to improve your tournament play? (online and live)
