Default ps: 45 man tourney - guy claims \"i gave him correct odds\"

early in a 45 man tourney: i am passive so far picking some spots to take away easy pots - the guz was quite loose and called a lot but rarely raised ... than this happens and i ask him how he could call my bets, he claims i gave him good odds ... how do you think i played the hand on all streets? did i really give him correct odds - i think my turn bet was a little bit small, should ve been half pot minimum, but still ok i think .. tx

25% bet is sooooooooo bad here. if you think you have the best hand, bet it, and bet strong.

Regardless of what he had, like 3/4 of the deck is scare cards to your hand. (4 to a straight, any over). Bigggggger next time.

You have two opponents, and you don't really know what either of them have. Notice the other one is open-ended and your bet gives him great odds to draw, particularly once the other guy calls. Betting this small is pretty terrible no matter what your hand is.
