I played today a $5+0.5 MTT with about 450 players... with 15 players remaining ( i was 11 with about 35000 chips at 800/1600 blinds) i'm dealt J7 of spades on BU. everybody folds so i think it's a good hand to steal. i open raise to 4000 and SB and BB both call. flop comes Qs Ts 9 ... SB checks BB bets 1600 i raise to 10000 SB calls BB pushes. i think for a moment and I call ( i had 17 * 4 = about 68% chance to turn or river basically the nuts...) SB calls also and blanks on the turn and river. BB shows QT off suit and SB and I muck. I finish in 15 place :|. I really dont like my play and I keep saying to myself to cold call a bet with a strong draw.

But what do you think ?

nh, play to win not to cash if you hit one of your multiple outs you get a decent stack to get into the final table and try to take it down.


BTW at this tournament when i had suited connectors or gap connectors i flopped a flush draw or OESD like 60% of the time not just 10.6 and 9.6 % .
