Super progressive knockout tourny
I'd played one hand against the MP2 player and that was SB vs BB, he had raised I called, he cbet 1/3 pot on 4JK rainbow board, then check/f on 2 spades on the turn.
So I guess that makes his c/r on the turn in this hand look even stronger

When the flop came, I didnt really like it even though I had TP but had to call.
OTT when MP2 checked I bet trying to get CO to commit to the pot so I could get his bounty, but when MP2 shoves do I just have to accept he has a 7 or straight and fold?

MP2 30/20 3bet 11 - 20 hands
CO 37/7 3bet 0 - 28 hands

Poker Stars, $10 Buy-in (70/140 blinds, 20 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players

SB: 11,615 (83 bb)
BB: 10,006 (71.5 bb)

MP1: 4,890 (34.9 bb)
MP2: 11,699 (83.6 bb)
Hero (MP3): 11,223 (80.2 bb)
CO: 3,546 (25.3 bb)
BTN: 7,425 (53 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with 9♠: 8♠:
3 folds, MP2 raises to 322, Hero calls 322, CO calls 322, 2 folds, BB calls 182

Flop: (1,538) 7♥: 8♦: 7♣: (4 players)
BB checks, MP2 bets 661, Hero calls 661, CO calls 661, BB folds

Turn: (3,521) 9♦: (3 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets 1,760, CO folds, MP2 raises to 10,696 and is all-in, Hero calls 8,460 and is all-in

River: (23,961) 2♠: (2 players, 2 are all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

I don’t think he will have to often a 7 on the turn and a straight isn’t to likely either if you think what he would raise pre-flop and Cbet the flop multi way. It’s more likely that he has an over pair or something, because 77-99 he would most likely check/call or so. So folding would be indeed better, because you can’t beat a over pair here.

Pretty spewy way of playing this hand. Despite having top two, you are only good against 8x and 9x and some draws. Pretty sure nobody is every going to play these hands like the villain in our case, even in a PSKO. In general, tournament players are very bad at bluffing turns. If you pull-up a database of hands and filter for spots when turn is raised, you will see that 99% cases it is a strong hand. Before hitting the call button, list off the hands you beat, if you cannot list any hands you should be folding. IMO fold to the raise and find better spot, you are never good here when ripping in.
