Default ($27) 52s makes flush on bubble, facing min-raise...

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero (t2625)
UTG (t8715)
Button (t1070)
SB (t1090)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls t200, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t600) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t800</font>, SB folds, Hero...

UTG was extremely loose, playing something like 64/8. This was the first time I played with him, so no other reads.

What's my play for the rest of the hand?

I shove the flop. His line is usually top pair good diamond kicker, sometimes a naked diamond, sometimes top pair no diamond, two pair, and sets. You are between 75 and 82% against this range. Worst case scenario is he has top pair good diamond kicker and it is still +EV to shove there although it is only .002% of the prizepool. Things get considerably better as you add other crap to his range.

Call flop raise, push/call for all your chips on turn with any non diamond. If diamond comes consider folding(unless its 4 of diamonds, of course). You'd still have 1600 chips, 2nd in chips.

Me too. Normally I think its a push, especially against such a LAGGY player, but chip position here and the likely hood that you will finish ITM if you dont go busto this hand....

He wasn't that LAGgy, he just limped a lot pre-flop. I didn't have any read on his flop/turn/river aggression levels - nothing terribly out of the ordinary there.

I would just shove the flop. Yeah, he hits the diamond every now and then but it's better to get it now than say a diamond hit and for him to bluff you off when he doesn't even have one.

In this case, he had 97s for a better flush. I was going to lose all my chips here regardless. I just wanted to know which line was best here.

I like your line. Just sucks he had you beat. I generally just try to hit the 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] if he has a higher flush [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
