We're still in the rebuy period of a local B&amp;M mtt. All comments appreciated, especially on post flop play.

I would have bet less on the flop, maybe around 400 or less, if he is a straight forward player he will fold if he dosent' have anything, raise if he has something good, or call with a marginal hand. The turn looks like a great card for you, he could have called your raise with KQ but without any reads I probably would have pushed too. If this tourney is anything like the tourney's I have played live the blinds go up really fast and you need to accumulate chips.

Fine. I would sometimes c/f the flop. Only one play on turn.

I wasn't sure why you posted this hand so I checked results, figuring AJ or trips Ts...results oriented. You played it fine, you could also check flop and hope for free card or fold to a bet.

its fine, dont be results oriented. make a note that the "seemingly straightforward" button sucks.
