Potlimit HE tourney: Obviously losing play or fair shot?
 
Playing in a $10 buy-in Potlimit Hold'em touney. The play is very LAG, and during the first 45 minutes I haven't really caught any playable hands, so I'm blinded down to t1,330 while the average stack is around t1,800; the blinds have just gone up to t50/t100.

The CO has been at my table from the get-go and has been playing incredibly loose; having my pot size bet called two places on the flop is clearly reason for concern, but when they both check the turn I put them on flush draws or second-pair type holdings, and decide to move in when the flush doesn't come - hoping to discourage river bluff bets I'd be hard pressed to call. Instead I figure my move would have a shot at folding a tie of a slightly better hands.

I'd love a reality check: did my play make any kind of sense or just it was another melt-down? When it comes to multi-table tourneys I've kinda felt somewhat lost lately ... thank you!

Best,

McMelchior (Johan)
