Flop trips - raised by big stack

[maryfield48]

Live tournament - Blinds are 75/150, 3 players left I have about 4-5k, chip leader has 14k or so, 3rd player has 3k.

I have 4c6c, no raises pre-flop, flop is 5d 6d 6h. I open a pot-sized bet of 600. Small stack calls, chip leader raises by 1k.

What do I do?

What is the payout structure?

I would move all-in. Your hand is way to strong to fold, and the board is too coordinated to give free or cheap cards. If one of your opponents happens to have 55 or a 6 with a bigger kicker, than that is just bad luck.

For some reason when I tried to reply to Ryan's post I got a blank screen.

Chip leader raised by 1k. It was 1k to me to call, and the pot was about 3.4k.

I didn't have a good read - he could've had an overpair, or he could have gotten a piece of the flop, 5-5 or 6 with a better kicker were obviously the options that were worrying me.

When I first read this I thought it was a cash game, now that I know it's a tournament, it'd depend on a # of variables you didn't give us. But I'd usually say push it, chances are you have the best hand there.

Payout was $170/$100/$65.

Wait so you are UTG, and the big stack is BB, well I don't see why the BB would not raise w/ any pocket pair when it was checked to him. I think you had the best hand, the short stack was on a flush draw, and the big stack was trying to buy a huge pot.

I'm probably wrong though, wait for an expert to come here.

Yeah I was SB, and first to act post-flop.

Well, if you were in the money I'd definentally call. I'd say most of the time you are ahead.
