Re: Results
 

Bruce, just read through the post and good hand. I would have made the same preflop raise. However, I think once he reraised you, you really only had two good choices: push or fold. I think Dan only calls you with AK, AA, KK, QQ (maybe JJ, but probably not). I also think, based on what I know about him, that he would definitely be capable of making a mini-raise as a 'move' and not necessarily with one of the top premium hands. In fact, I think if he was just some unknown player it would be much more likely that he had a top hand with the mini-raise. I know it worked out for you, but I really don't like calling that raise given that in most cases you only win if you hit the set. Yes, you won with a really big move on the flop, but I don't think that move would work for you most of the time. If you really read him as weak post flop, why not just push preflop?

Re: Results
 

Do you really think Dan will put his case chips in with AK?
He has six outs twice so with 4:1 odds isn't a call bad?.
If Dan does have AK do I want him to see all five cards? If
I push then he gets to see all five cards. I think he probably had a smaller pocket pair, because I would think if he had
AK he would have pushed BTF. If he did have a smaller pocket pair than obviously I should have pushed BTF. I don't know if he calls or not. By me not pushing I allow myself to be outplayed if an Ace or King come on the flop.
Perhaps I'm making this way too complicated.

If he had AK he'd be slightly better than a 3:1 dog. But he doesn't know that you don't have AA-QQ.

Nice hand bruce.

To the guy who said fold JJ utg in a tournament- thats very horrible. I don't know how you could go far in a tournament without playing jacks tens and nines UTG. Waaaaaaaaay too tight IMO.

FOLD!

Dan H is a tight player and you should always fold if he raises.
