6th Hand - Should I have slowed down?

[goldtoes]

6th hand of a $20 MTT. Obviously don't have a read. I am mainly worried about how I played the turn. Should I have just called his turn / river bets instead of raising and reraising AI? The more I look at it, the more I think I overplayed the hand, but how standard is it?

I'm assuming he had JT and you didn't fill up on the river.

He could just as easily have 77-99 as JT, and you are ahead of everything except 56/T6/JT. I never feel bad if I get my chips in here.

Flop bet standard, 4bet shove standard.

well all my $$$ is getting in there ... nh

[Killingbird]

yeah, its all going in. and he seems willing to get it all in on this street, so I like it as played.

[sah_24]

it is early but if ur not goin to put it in wit a set then where do u plan on getn it in. With the villains line he could easily have 77-99 as an earlier poster said.

I just dont think u can fold this hand here if hes got j10 u ran into some bad luck and just a crazy turn that killed u. I might be able to get away if it turned into a raisin fest on the flop but after the queen ball turn im not foldin.

Does anyone else see a possibility of a slowplayed kk or aa?

Meh. I dunno. I don't hate shoving the turn, but I also don't hate calling the turn planning to call any bet on any J/T/6 river, and most bets then, too. If the board pairs, I'm raising, obviously. This early in the tournament, though, T2000 is still plenty of chips, and even after a biggish river bet, T1000 still leaves you with an M of 33 or so. Why overplay? The value in making sure you don't go broke is worth more than doubling up this early.

This is definitely what I was thinking was my other option(s). The way he played the other streets made me think that if I just called the turn, I would have gotten away with a cheap call to his value bet on the river.

He had JT, obv .. .and the river didnt boat me

I might raise to 80 or 100 preflop since the stacks are so deep.

Otherwise totally standard. I go broke here even if I don't turn the set.
