I have 3,185 left on the river. From what I've seen so far, my opponents aren't too particular of what they'll go in with. That said, I haven't been on this table long and I haven't seen my opponent play a hand. The action fits with a flush draw that hit, but my opponent could have many other hands. Your comments are appreciated on any aspect of the hand.

I fold here. I play the rest the same.

There is also 2 possiable straight draws. Ace high and Q high. I could see some ppl stay in with 2 over cards.

The Ad and Qd are on the board here so I'm thinking what could
he have to call your PFR? The Kd? Could he have Kd Jd? Would
he call 4xBB with Kd Td? His straight hand needs KJ but would he
call on the flop for the inside straight.

I would fold this hand without a read but take careful note to trap
him later.

Yikes - 9J an ugly JK (unless they were diamonds), two diamonds or trips and there's your tourney. You have no read. To me that = fold. Blinds are still only 50/100 right now, and you still have over 3,000 chips left. Plenty of time to regroup and get it back. But damn that Q makes things tempting doesn't it??? If you did call and got busted make sure to write that down in dubbe's notes so you have a better read on him in the future (same thing if u called and won).

The queen is a horrible card for you. You had a better chance of winning without that queen on the board.

The smart thing to do would be to fold. I would call, but thats cuase i suck.

fold, there are better times to get your chips in.

I agree now that folding would be the correct play. My hand doesn't beat many hands that would push in front of me here. At the time I thought it was just as likely I was up against 2 pair than a straight or flush, but I shouldn't have risked it. Survival is most important in a MTT, and I still had more than an average stack after folding. I'm sure this $1 lesson will help me in a future tourney though.
