Default Limit tourney hand



Limits are at $100/200. I have about $1800, playing against a guy (call him X) with about $2500 who just got relocated to this table (so I don't know how he plays).


In in early position, dealt KK. I raise, X calls, and one other guy calls.


Flop comes 5 10 K all of hearts.


question 1: what is the right course of action here?


I bet, X raises, other guy calls.


question 2: what is the right course of action here?


I reraise, figuring if X calls he's either got high pair (unlikely), trips or a nut flush draw. X re-raises.


question 3: what is the right course of action here?


I folded.


result of the hand will be posted later.

First, you'll get more responses if you post this in the tournament section.


Generally with a flopped set I want to wait until the turn to raise, but given the 3 hearts already there I bet out too.


When raised back to me I think I would just call. I don't think the raise is bad though, it is very likely you are ahead. No way would I fold this hand. Even if he has the flush, you have 7 outs on the turn, and 10 on the river to beat a flush.


You gave up too soon.

Until the muck you were fine. Now just check and call unless you fill up. Then bet out.

The tournement section, as davidross suggests, will get you more feedback.
