Default $5.50 Bodog early stages

Don't have hand history, maybe 4-5 hands have gone by so stacks are even and no reads.

10 handed
1500 stacks
Blinds 10-20

Hero is dealt JcJs

2 folds, MP1 calls, Hero raises to 100, 1 fold, villian calls, CO calls, 3 folds, MP1 calls

Flop 9h 6h 3h (330)

MP1 checks, Hero bets 250, villain min raises to 500, CO folds, MP1 folds, Hero calls

Turn 4c (1330)

Hero pushes last 1000.....

PF raise to 60, so we have pot control, (is there something wrong with the pot size? it should be 430 not 330) as played bet the flop. the board here sucks vs 3 players, we could be already be facing a FD right now, and we can still get away from the hand on the flop with around ~1200 chips, there's way more opportunities later on in the tourney to get chips.

Pot size looks right to me...Blinds = 30, Hero raise =130, CO call = 230, MP1's limp (20) + call (80) = 330. Also Hero did bet the flop, which is good. Just shove all in to the reraise.

With one limper, raising to 60 is out of the question. I like 100, I think most would. After the minraise on flop, I think your stuck at pushing. Hopefully at this level its only top pair or fd, but it might be combo. Waiting for later opportunities is bad advice. We may be wrong here, but you should play the hand at max EV, not wait for later spots to magically get chips.

lol..pfr 60? at $5.5 STT, are you kidding me? why pot control? why not hand control?? I like the 100, maybe even 120, to get rid of A-rag limpers.. flop-bet fine by, me, his minraise maybe w overs w flushcard, trying to scare you off..i`d shove it on the flop also!

if youre going to stack off with this hand, do it on the flop. waiting for the turn is suicide with his raising range here in a multi way pot.
