I play 3 5 and 11 rebuys so this is an insta push pre flop. If not insta push flop.

You have to bet/push here. You're probably ahead here 99% of the time. With your action pre-flop, it would seem odd to an observant player if you checked behind post-flop, especially with that flop.

However, having said that, I'm pushing this hand pre-flop everytime, especially after any sort of raise.

Hero still had 2290 in his stack with a pot size on the flop of 645, thats a terrible risk vs. reward ratio... I like a bet of ~400 here, 350 is obviously fine also...

And plus, checking behind gives those drawing hands a free card. Chances are that villian will call a push anyways with a drawing hand here but I'd rather stick my chips in when I was ahead rather than already drawing dead, duh! LOL.

Keep in mind this is 1 rebuy 1 add-on, so it's essentially played like a Freeze-Out. If I go busto here, tournament is over.

Ok disreguard my post then. I was thinking of a normal rebuy.

Hm...

I would say you have to bet the flop to gain some information. He maybe even bet with KK now i think. You bringing yourself into trouble here.
Your only in front of a KK here i would guess, but he wouldnt bet a KK because he would be behind to any hand you could be raising with.

I wouldn't mind folding here. But call --> Evaluate river could do it, but no need to raise here.
