bad push?
Blinds 25/50, I have about 1500 chips.
I have Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in the cutoff, and open for 150. The button and both blinds call. The flop is all rags, with 2 diamonds. It checks around to me; I push. i figure I have enough outs that I'm not worried, even if I get called, but is might i be better off betting smaller to encourage a call, so I can get paid well if I hit my flush? |

Re: bad push?
why risk ur whole tournament on a draw when ur only gonna get called by hands where u need to catch ur diamond. if u push, u win a realatively small pot or lose a big one as well (of course, u can win a big one if u catch)
id rather just make a continuation bet of 1/3 to 1/2 the pot and try and take it down. still have plenty of chips in this spot |

Re: bad push?
Its very early to go all in on just a semi-bluff. Even if its a rebuy tournament, its not worth it. You can bet 1/3 or 1/4 of your chips if you want. Your opponents are gonna see it the same way.

Re: bad push?
I like the push. Mid PPs can call and you'd still be ahead. Most times they'll fold.
Althought I'd rather make a pot sized bet. |
