What's the buyin?

I bet 1500 on the flop and fold to a shove. You still have 40BB left, and in ok shape.

As played, I guess it looks strong to CR-shove the turn, but I don't expekt him to fold 77+. He could of course take a stab with AJ+, KQ etc., but would he call PF with that?

It's probably okay to give up now, but as I said, I like 1500 on flop.

Oh, I just bet close to pot on the flop and get the rest in regardless. You are either chopping, a 3-1 dog to a pp, a 4-1 favorite over Ax/Kx, or occasionally crushed by a big pp or boat. With pot odds and FE, you need to just get the money in. As played is too passive.

This is bad. Once you bet 1500 on the flop, you are getting 3.1-1 to call which is your odds against QQ.

I bet like 1800 and call a push. If you are folding to a raise, make it like half pot 1000.

Wow, I just ran the numbers and you are absolutely right. Thought it was a lot worse than that. I guess 1100/fold or 1800/call is better then... Meh

How big is the tournament?
How many people left?
What's the buy-in?
See any targets?

Those should determine whether to bet ~1300 or ~2000 and then jam irregardless.
