Default Re: KQ Top pair hand early in $55 MTT

Like you're PF call. Like your flop raise, although I might make it 80 (but thats not much a of a diff), since I would like to play a smaller pot wih KQ. Its hard to tell wheat the cold call is since you have no read. A standard tag player would cold call there with a set or maybe 2 pair. I check the turn since i picked up outs and might still haev the best hand. If i bet and he does haev a set or something strong, he will prob raise me and i might not see a river. His bet was small enough where u got to see a river. His push is 2 ends of th espectrum for me. He either has a big hand, aq for a turned straight, a set or top 2 OR he's got air. YTou have to lean towards a big hand here. He prob has u pegged for atleast top pair so mayeb he thinks yopu'll call his push. I would lay this down after a little thought. I think you could try a blocking bet since if he doesnt hold AQ or q9 he would have to just call with a set. TOUGH SPOT.
