Default Folding bottom set without testing if it\'s good on FT of MTT

This is the FT of a $5.5 rebuy tournament. Top 6 is paid, with 6 getting $50 so pretty good payouts and I care about making the money. Villain is chip leader and is a pretty good player, and he is bossing people around.

My idea for folding here is partly about being pretty close to the money. The main idea is with two clubs out there I have no way of knowing what a good turn is. If it comes a club I hate my hand, and really with a K or a 9 I don't know if I am good either. So the only possible way to play it is to repot it and move all-in on the turn no matter what. Being close to the money I decided not to.

What do you think? I realize I put myself in this predicament by not leading out. What is a reasonable line to take if I lead out with a PSB?

Wow... You're hand is waaaay underrepped here. Imo, this is terrible. Since he's the CL, and dominates the table, he can bet here with sooo many hands. I think you know the answer to this anyway. As played, I repot, and get it in on most turncards. I have played a lot of tournaments, and I can say that you shouldn't worry about making the money. If you do, youre probably playing over your head/roll. Top 2 pays soo much more, and if you are trying to make money on these, you should go for the top spots...

Also, there are still 3 players to bust before the money, and your'e nbot guaranteed to make it even if you fold this.

I need emergency help. It's 3-way and they have about $120k chips and I only have $20k, blinds 1200/2400. How do I play?

nevermind: I got all-in with KKxx, he had some junk but won. It's the price to pay for nitting it up way too much I guess. I suck at tournaments
