Fold preflop.

I fold PF. Then I check flop. With 800 chips, I don't think you're deep enough to be playing a drawing hand. Also, with so many people in the pot, I don't like your chances with TP2K. If I'm playing KQs, I'm playing it for a monster flop.

I normally do fold this preflop. I have been trying to play a few more hands lately when I can get in cheaply like this. Maybe that type of thinking is wrong and I should go back to playing tighter in level 1?
I told myself before the flop I wasn't going to continue past the flop unless I hit top two pair or better. Then this flop happened and I went against my better judgement.

If I call PF (it's not a certain fold for me but at an 800 chip tourney I probably wouldn't play it)...I'm checking here and seeing what happens behind you. You don't care about free cards on this board so much as you want to see whether a QJ is out.
PS: MP2 has nothing 90% of the time, but somebody will usually bet here. If there's no real interest, put 150 in on most turns and see who bites. |

Seriously rocks, there is nothing wrong with playing this PF. That's not what hte OP was asking about. Its the flop line that is intresting. As for that, I mix it up between betting out and checking to see what developes with checking my preferred line. If I bet it would be less than you bet. More of a probe type.

OK, so why a probe bet and not more?
My thinking when I did bet was that either I get them all to fold, I fold to a reraise or see what happens on the turn if I get called (hopefully by a weaker queen). If you throw a probe bet out there, aren't you more likely to get called by drawing hands? Maybe thats ok, but with all those other players in the pot, I wanted to narrow the field with my hand. |

The board isn't really that draw friendy I guess 10 9 gets to take a card off on you. I bet smaller because it gives me info for cheaper. I really think people calling and raising standards are about the same for a 100 bet as a 150 bet though maybe not. Basically I'm betting to figure out what I'm up against.
