Sorry about no hand history, I am at work.

Tournament was the 4.5k guarantee on FTP 5r. which is a 6max event.

I believe the average stack was 20k and I had around 17k with the blinds at 400/800 and 150(?) ante.

I just sat down at the table maybe got around one orbit and have no reads.

Basically this hand pops up with maybe 90 some people left, any advice would be appreciated.

Folds around to me in SB with 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] i raise to 2250 (standard? or should i raise more) his stack was around 19k. He calls.

pot: 5400

flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I bet 4450; he calls after tanking till time was out.

turn: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

My questions is here; this is the worst card i could see besides 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]; the pot is around 14.3k and i have 11.3k left and he has me covered by 1k.

Is there a line that can keep you from going broke if he has a flush or straight? Any other comments about my play in general. Thanks
