Going broke with AK (assuming the money went in preflop) when you have a below average stack and "only" 20 BB, in your example, is nothing to be ashamed of.

At least I don't think so. I didn't see how the hand went down of course - you certainly COULD have overplayed it - but sometimes your run into KK. You can't sit around and wait for Aces all day though. I like to avoid big pots, but sometimes you just need to get your money in.
