MP1: 1,500
MP2: 1,580
CO: 1,245
BTN: 1,670
SB: 1,620
Hero (BB): 1,440
UTG: 1,570
UTG+1: 1,410
UTG+2: 1,465

Pre-Flop: (120) T♥ A♥ dealt to Hero (BB)
5 folds, CO calls 80, BTN folds, SB calls 40, Hero checks

Flop: (240) 8♣ K♥ J♥ (3 Players)
SB checks, Hero checks, CO checks

Turn: (240) Q♥ (3 Players)
SB bets 80, Hero calls 80, CO folds

River: (400) 4♥ (2 Players)
SB bets 400, Hero raises to 1,280 and is All-In, SB folds

would a raise on turn have been more profitable? didnt want to scare someone out and got lucky that SB fired a potsized barrel on river...

I would bet flop, check turn, bet river

i'd raise turn. there aren't any hands that can suck out against you (obviously), but there are cards that can scare an opponent into check/folding or bet/folding (in this case).

betting the flop is a must.

alright thx, im kinda paralyzed everytime i hit a super monster
actually im extremlely passive postflop if i wastn preflop aggressor.. what about being raised when betting flop in this spot, get it all-in right there due to my outs? or call flop, fold turn if i didnt improve since its a pretty early blind level

get it all in against anyone who is even moderately aggressive. only play it passively against passive players who raise you, cause that means a set :(

#2, but I wouldn't bet the flop

because we could have a very ugly flop decission if he C/R us, and we have an easy fold if we don't improve

@unam, i prefer to get my money in with 2 cards to see with semi-monsterdraws like this, early in a tournament. ICM tax is quite low at this point.

maybe simply a question of style though...
