Default $120 MTT Live

First hand of the tournament, blinds start at 25-25, 5K starting stacks. . . There is only one person at the table im firmiliar with, from previous tournaments.


5k stacks all around. . .

UTG limps, UTG +1 fold, I raise to 125 with Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Folds to CO who calls, and UTG calls...
Flop ($425)
10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG Leads for 300, I raise to 800, CO fold, UTG calls (Should my raise be more? 1000~?)

Turn ($2025)
5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG leads for 500, I (...Am lost...)

If call, what kind of river card are we hoping for? The A or K of hearts? And what do we do if river blanks and he throws out another retarded bet?

Is there reason to raise the turn, getting a better hand to fold? Or any chance of us still having the best hand at this point?

Describe the villain:

young? middle aged? old?
wearing sunglasses/ipod?
comfortable handling his chips?
what ethnicity was he?
what was his facial reaction to the turn card when it fell?

If he looks inexperienced I am snap folding the turn. If he is old I call the turn and fold the river (old guy is checking the river with AT/KT etc)...

I don't see how ur folding here. Early in live tourneys there are just too many donks that do retarded things. You have an over pair and a strong flush draw. He probably has a 10 with a flush draw.

Hes 30ish
No sunglasses // ipod
First hand, just sat down not even 30 secs before hand got dealt hasnt really touched his chips other than to put them in... Nothing fancy but not clumsy with em...
He was white.. Even though I dunno why this matters...
He looked at his chips, looked at the board, and bet 500....

He was talking to a couple other unknowns at that table... They knew him pretty well, so im assuming hes not CLUELESS...


I CALL turn...
River 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

He bets 500... I sigh and call(?)

Commited at this point right...? No point in raising, dont get called by anything worse and get raised by anything that beats me... Played correctly?
