call and spike your 10 and ship it...seriously this spot sucks and I guess we fold but it so looks like a float on the flop and a stab at our weakness

Barry if you meant a CRAI on the flop then I agree with you 100%, I really like that here. Playing this OOP is going to really suck so I'd like to just end it with one quick move on the flop. If he checks the flop back, all is not lost, because our hand is stronger than he'd expect and the pot isn't out of control yet.

eeek, yes, on the flop I meant. No, you don't want to CRAI on that turn, lol.

Here's a lesson from this hand - playing OOP sucks. Think about it. Also, the whole "I have a PSB left on the turn, [censored] it" philosophy works a lot less than one would like to think. Just a couple of thoughts. Back to work.

Yea, so I ended up tanking here for a bit and realized this was definitely going to be a big inflection point of the tourney for me and I believe he knew this as well. If I'm calling here, I'm not sure exactly what I'm beating besides a bluff. QJ just got there on me, AJ already had me. Q10 got there.

So after a while, I thought my 2/3 bet on the flop exuded a lot of strength so I didn't exactly think he was trying to pull a fast one on me, and I folded. He showed 99 for the set.
