$5 PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (5 handed)
SB (t6545)
Hero (t980)
UTG (t780)
MP (t2535)
Button (t2660)
Preflop: Hero is BB with 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif, Q/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG folds, MP calls t100, Button folds, SB completes, Hero checks.
Flop: (t300) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero ???
Don't think I'm folding out a better Q on this level if I push, MP hasn't gotten out of line yet. Not worried about UTG. I feel I have to bet this, but it has to be full pot given the draws out there.
Is bet pot/fold to reraise the best way to play this? If I bet pot I have 580 chips left
Also, if I get called, I really can't assume the guy has a Q or J as players at these tables routinely pay full pot to draw. So say I bet pot, get called, and the turn blanks? What now?
I really hated this hand, as you can tell.
