Default Re: Tournament Hand Evaluation

Don't show people your hands when you fold. You gain nothing by it, you just give your opponents information.

Unless you want them to think that you are weak, so that they'll play their weak hands stronger when you are holding a strong hand.

That has little value at this stage of the tournament, though.

To the OP: Since you called pre-flop, you have to push this flop if you're going to call pre-flop.

Don't ever call preflop just thinking "I'm getting great odds". Call preflop when you have odds AND an actual plan as to how you will further play the hand. Otherwise you are just bleeding chips.

By the way, villain in this hand may indeed be a good player, but if he thinks you are a donkey (as your read of his betting pattern suggests he thinks this way), he could well be trying to value bet with hands you crush.
