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

I like the re-raise to 5K as well though. It gives you two shots to win all those chips:

1. Your opponent goes away
2. You hit your draw on the river, and you have plenty of outs

I originally advocated betting the flop, because it would give us a better idea where we stood against our opponents, and allow us to risk 1K or so and get away without risking anymore chips. Now we might be putting in more than that and have allowed ourselves to be outdrawn, and we wind up putting our entire tournament at risk on a draw.
