Call me weak, but I probably check the flop, fold to the raise, and fold the turn.

I guess I'm weak too


If I call turn, I'm fistpump calling river

i also thought the flop check was kinda fishy. do you really think he checks a set in that position and risks giving the free card to half the table?

regardless i don't like bet/calling the flop. there is definitely something off about his line but i feel like its a big time reach to put him on a move here 5 minutes into the tourney with no money in the pot.

if i did bet/call i like raising the turn.

PF is fine
Flop I don't like either of your actions.
Turn as played is close
River I'd never call.

I can't imagine folding preflop. I don't know why everyone hates the flop bet so much, you likely have the best hand, you likely will not have the best hand when the next card comes with 4 others in the pot, take it down.

His flop c/r doesn't come in a multiway pot, it's heads-up when it gets back around to him and he raises. It's a toss-up between it looks like a bluff and it makes no sense for him to be bluffing here. I'd fold because I know another bet is coming on the turn, but I think there's a decent chance your hand is good here.

As played, I would never fold the turn. If he has a set, or just made a straight with T9, you're stacking him if a non-board pairing heart comes on the river. Raising would be crazy, he could easily have the nuts or a set.

As played, fold the river, if he triple barreled with 97 or 76, so be it, but that's all you beat here.
