Shove preflop probably best here? I thought why take a chance maybe get to see the flop cheap and folding 55 means I don't meet the end of the tourney half the time when I get called.
Flop: (420,000) 5

BB checks, MP2 bets 100,000, Hero raises to 300,000, BB folds, MP2 raises to 500,000, Hero calls 200,000
I raise for value and the reraise seems so small. I figure either I'm way behind or against a flush draw so call with what I estimate in a couple of seconds is enough odds to see a turn, but maybe not.
Turn: (1,420,000) 7
(2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero checks
River: (1,420,000) 4 (2 players)
MP2 bets 313,496 and is all-in, Hero calls 313,496
Snap call here.
