Tough to lose hand #1 of a big tourney. I imagine your friend was looking forward to it for quite a while.

I would remind your friend that you can still make great plays in bad situations, and he might have been able to lay down the QQQ to the river bet and salvaged T3200 in chips.

If not T1700 is still ~70XBB, and certainly enough chips to play some hands.

Thank your friend for sharing, I'm sure its painful.

The Q on the turn makes it more likely you're way ahead/way behind. Check behind on the turn. Flat call the river if it looks like a blocking bet. Value bet if he checks. Fold to a pot sized bet.

***Edited to say that if I checked behind on the turn I would call a pot-sized bet on the river.

That river push is awful.
