Default Re: Play a Hand With the Masters #1 Turn

If you're a risk-taker and you don't mind going home early, you can re-raise here or push, although you'll essentially be pot-committing yourself to the hand with lots of outs, but your entire tournament at risk.

I would likely "think" for awhile and smooth-call. I still have position, and can win if I hit on the river, or get away if I don't hit. A smooth-call might scare the CO into checking, depending on the river card, so you might get a free showdown.

I think most pro's would re-raise in this spot though, since they're interested in accumulating chips early instead of just struggling through as an average stack.
