Personally I am not getting away from this. Once that turn falls and he min raises , I would be putting him on that K and getting it all in the middle, as you did.

When I first saw the flop, I thought you were getting it all in on the flop. In that case, no way I'm folding. When the king pairs on the turn, I might be able to get away from it, but it would be a difficult decision.

Yeah, I agree. KJ seems like a likely hand when he min raises the turn. However, he could just as easily have KQ or K10. I don't know. Early in a tournament, I'm probably just going to have to go broke.

TBH, i am not too scared of the FH on that turn because I cannot see two pair flat calling the flop bet on that board.

Thanks for the input.

What I actually put him on was a flush draw once he called the flop bet, maybe a straight draw. I just couldn't put him on AJ after he limped UTG and a lot of people seem to limp with any suited connectors. My main concern was KT or KQ, but as mentioned, I leaned more towards a flush draw because he just called my flop bet, thought maybe he was semi bluffing with the min raise.

Yeah I was thinking his range was:

Ax-hearts/K-rag-also possibly hearts/KJ/AJ.

Considering you are ahead of all of those except AJ, my money is going in on that turn.
