No free turn card - but of course you know that already. t300 on flop, push turn (yes, I see the 3rd diamond).

Edit: Ooooops! /images/graemlins/blush.gif I stand corrected...but stick by my t300 flop lead /images/graemlins/wink.gif

If he bets t300 on the flop betting the turn is not an option /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I throw the chips in on the flop.

Push on the flop! Your opponent does not have that many chips at all. If they wanna call them off let em. The fact that board came w/ 2 diamonds is even more reason to push. Why let them hit a free diamond when you could charge them for it? That was your one fatal flaw for the hand. It might not have affected the outcome, but this is an easy push

good luck to you

300 in pot, your opp only has 300 more chips

put him in on the flop, definitely

he folds maybe half the time (depends on player, of course) and u win most of the times he calls

[suited_ace]

Yeah, I know the flop check wasn't very nice. What I thought at the time was that most low-limit players push the flop with a flush draw, so I thought the risk of her having the draw + completing it on the turn was low enough for me to slowplay it. Am I too far off?

I put villain in on this flop.

First, I can't put villain on trip Ks because he would have pushed pre-flop. Therefore, best for villain is trip 9s or 5s - not very likely based on pure chance (but so be it if that what they have, fire another one up). If you are betting into his trips, he raises all-in anyway, and you have to call. So might as well push him here, because you HAVE to bet, and here's why:

You need to make villain decide if they want to put their tourney life on the line right here. You can't give infinite odds to a player facing elimination. You are killing yourself if he has a PP that hits trips on the turn, or if his flush or gut-shot hits.

Bet it all-in. With villain's stack size, you are forced to call any turn/river bet, so only chance is to push the flop and hope villain folds or calls with something like AK.

can't slow play against a min-stack. only can get worse for you.
