Did I play this right?

I am wondering if I played this smart or should I have played it differently and possibly gotten more. Any help with this so I can improve my game would be greatly appreciated.

Well, you knocked a guy out cause you checked the nuts and you let him hit the turn, that's what you got to do when you have a good hand, let them hit and then crack them.

The call preflop with k-7 when 3 more to act is on the other hand a bit loose, i would have folded.

i fold pre-flop.

You say this even when it is only 40 to call?

even if it was 20 i still fold here.

Look at it this way - let's say you call 40 and miss (a more likely scenario). You fold, boo hoo, 40 is lost, o well. Now let's say a couple hands down the road you're dealt the nuts - 4 of a kind, just like this hand. You manage to get 2 players to put their chips in, just like you did here - it also means that you're missing out on 40 chips from each of them.
Or, an even more likely scenario, you get a piece of the flop - say, KJ3. You bet your top pair the entire way and are called down the entire way by one player - who just happens to have KT. You just lost a decent portion of your stack which can't be used when you get dealt quads later down the road.
Finally, look at the REAL long term investment - just wait until you hit antes - 40 chips is 1+ antes, and it could be just enough to justify waiting for a better hand just one more time. I know, 1 ante doesn't seem like much - but would you rather be forced to go all in with T6o or wait one more hand, and hope for the better?

Fault always lies in the same place, my fine babies: with him weak enough to lay blame.

I agree with DJ & D. The phrase that misleads people is that a bare K is favourite preflop against a random hand. What that means is a single random hand, not several of them. It also only applies when the betting hasn't already ruled out most of the hands the bare K would be favourite against, in other words the hand you are up against no longer qualifies for the phrase "random hand".

Any lower high card is not favourite against a single random hand, let alone several of them. But hey, get heads up and the cards barely matter.

Well thanks for all the input I will keep all this in mind. As for antes I have not ever seen them in these games. Now if this had been a bigger multi table game I would have folded this pre- flop as suggested before.

i dont know if this is a single table SnG, but if it is then u should play tighter here than in larger tournys.
