$10 overpair on draw heavy board.

    Default $10 overpair on draw heavy board.

    Very early in the tournament. BB could obviously have anything from a made straight to a strong draw. Of course I'm at least calling, but how strong am I playing it? Am I potting it here and calling a push? Can I fold after raising? Or am I calling it down all the way? I think overpair + OESD + drawy board = fast play, no?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, 10+1 Tournament, 20/40 Blinds (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    BB (t1485)
    UTG (t3600)
    UTG+1 (t1365)
    MP1 (t1425)
    MP2 (t1365)
    Hero (CO) (t1500)
    Button (t1275)
    SB (t1485)

    Hero's M: 25.00

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 8, 8
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls t40, 2 folds, Hero calls t40, 2 folds, BB checks

    Flop: (t140) 5, 6, 7 (3 players)
    BB bets t75, UTG+1 calls t75, Hero ???

    I would put in a good solid raise here. With 290 already in the pot I think I would raise it to about 350 and call a shove.

    I like it. Our hand is likely best + we have redraws and if we wait till 9 or 5 falls, our hand is face up.

    Thanks. With the straight and flush draws possible I potted it. BB shoved and I called. He flipped 34 and I didn't catch. Agreed that it was the right move though.
