$30+3 KQ flop with 2 pushing

[mikey checks]

EARLY in the tournament. No reads and a flop easily manipulated by idiots involved in the hand. I raised preflop....tell me if I make a good call here, I was hoping no AK or set on the flop.

Most hysterical part was how I knew the BB was betting the flop out....my raise was small enough preflop to mask my hand completely and he bets 225 then mucks it to the reraises.

somebody is eventually gonna tell you to post this in the single table tournaments section, so I guess I'll tell you before them

[TrailofTears]

I'm guessing you posted in this forum by accident since you obviously aren't new here. 1TT, baby, 1TT. And I don't understand your play on this hand at all, nor do I understand how you have such a read on the BB if this is so early in the tourney. Bizarre all around.

1 hand before this did the same exact thing UTG...bet out a raised flop and mucked to a reraise. looked real weak from my angle.

anyway, guyguy had a J7flush draw which hit... the $30's play looser than the 20s...

cheers TrailofTears, seen ya around party the crazy site

Mikey, it says you're from long island, whereabouts exactly? I am too. I live in Jamesport, which is a little east of Riverhead.
