    #1 Which hands does he min reraise--does he do it with anything but big pp? With no read, it whispers big pp.
    #2 Is he a continuation or probe better?
    #3 What's ur image--have u been folding to these kind of raises or hammering them.
    Get ur chips in the middle if the answers are yes. With 2 yes and 1 i dont know I consider a shove. But I don't like the size of his bets--they're asking for a call. Good fold methinks.

    A question for u: If u were going to put him on high pp, and not bet this flop, do u want to call his pf reraise? The flops won't look much better than this, and u don't have implied odds for a set.

    Bet the flop, I assume you had a tight read, if he comes over the top you are done, checking gave you no info. He may bet AK here thinking it's the best hand.

    Yep

    In this situation I would push all-in on the flop. It's likely he has overcards.
    If he has a bigger pair, you are done.

    I'd fold, but I think betting the flop would be a good play for info. As before, if he comes over the top fold. Here's my reasoning:

    -He has a big hand as your raise UTG wasn't respected
    -No information on whether he hit the flop, or even needed to hit it to have you beat.
    -Still early on in the tournament. Why risk the rest of your tournament on this? With higher blinds/pot or if you were shortstacked I'd go ahead and go all in.

    Then again...I'm not that experienced so perhaps that's overly weak.

    No way fold that hand!!!

    His reraise means he's betting overcards like KQ or AJ.

    With rags on the board and an overpair you push.

    You are short stack and likely won't get in the money without
    those chips!

    Note: you shouldn't have checked the flop, you should have pushed all-in right there

    Clear push

    its not a clear push, it really depends on the villian's table image.

    Min-reraises always make me worry, every time I see one of them I am up against AA/KK. It feels like a monster building up the pot. If he is a solid player, I agree with aces check and fold... unless you have a read that he min-reraises a lot, then I would push.

    With a deeper stack I would throw out a bet of 300chips to see where I was. With these stack sizes any bet and you are committed for your stack or getting out without an arm. Check fold and you are stiing on 18BB and still in contention.

    Clear fold IMO.
    Not that it would be easy to lay down, but I think you are probably beat here.
    Unless you have reason to believe that the other guy would be bluffing you, he's played it exactly like he would with a bigger pair than 10s.
    Dimitri, why do you put him on just overcards as opposed to a big pair? There is absolutely nothing in that HH that would suggest he has overcards. You're just being idealistic. I mean, MAAAAYBE he has AK, but even then you're just making a guess. Everything says 10s are beat here, but if you wanna take a shot in the dark and guess he's bluffing then go ahead. You may be right 10% of the time or something like that.

    Wait, I think I misread it. The BB is only 50. I thought it was 150.
    I see your point. With a 6x raise you may be up against JJ to AA.
    I'm also thinking PokerStars chips where $1k means your in trouble.
    Tough laydown but I think I agree with everyone on this..

    Sorry for the confusion.

    What site is this on? Party Poker? Easy push, you WILL hit your two-outter by the river, no doubt.

    Well played the entire way, you knew you were up against a big pair when he re-raised you, and just wanted to see a flop for set value. Tough one, but good fold, and good job of conserving chips by not betting the flop.
    Lack of Discipline and Over-Confidence... The root of all poker evil.
