Folded to SB: 88
Alright, one of my weakest areas in tourneys is blind vs. blind when I am in the sb versus a bb who likes to smooth call and play back at me alot. The opp. has just got moved to the table, and the last sb vs. bb. i had raised, he called, the flop came a q 8 all of hearts, and i check folded q-trash without a heart because i didn't really want to get involved in that spot. I have been very active in the last orbit, raising 3 or 4 different pots, taking all but one uncontested to bulk my stack back up (the other one I took down on the flop). So knowing I have a loose table image, how do u play this? I raised hoping he would reraise and I would push. Maybe a limp-reraise, or just limping, then playing the flop accordingly, so I can get away from it cheap. I led out the flop, hoping to take it down. He called. I was about to shut it down, but the turn made me really want to see the river, so I made a small blocking bet (real obvious looking) hoping he would smooth call, then I could shove the river if I hit straight/trips/straight flush/possibly the flush, and check-fold if I missed. Looking back, this looks like a real idiotic play, so should I have played this?

BTW, as played, do u call the turn raise? I could only give myself around 9-10 outs (he could already have made the flush or straight and I could have 0 or 1 outs easily) reliably, so pot odds made it a fold, but it might have been worth the gamble to have the chance to get to 9,000.
