Opinions on this play? Final 12 left in the tourney, around 550 entered. Villain is big stack and we've clashed last 3 hands with him winning (usually raise / call / fold on flop). Running I think around 6th. Reason for posting is hand set me up for rest of the tourney pretty much.

Any other info you would like I'm happy to give.

Cheers - First post in MTT strat.

not sure what the question is...the play is superstandard and you shoud be hapy to get in her regardless of how it turned out...nh

i like this play. you could be protecting a big pair on a draw heavy board. you have overs gut shot and 4 flush so w some fe and the fact that you are not folding this is the optimal play

Super standard semibluff. Only question is whether potting it gives you more FE than overshoving which is often read as a draw. I don't think it matters which way, this is fine.

at this stage i don't like potting...if we get called and misswe forfeit a lot of out FE and are behind...I think a push will fold out some better hands and we obviosly have a large portion of the deck to help if called
