bottom 2 pair, somewhat close to the bubble

[wond3rbr3ad]

$10 Gus tourny on champs so no HH. it took me 2 $2 satellites to win my seat then I hit a Royal flush which gave me $5 so I was already ahead $1 in this tourny. top 18 pay but 11th-18th is only $15.01 which I don't really think is worth 3 hours, I'm looking for top 10.
2 and a half hours into the tourny, there's 26 left and this hand happens.

139 started and we start with 3k chips so I guess that makes the avg 16k

level: 400/800 blinds with a 50 ante.

villian is UTG with about 16k chips
hero is bb with about 14.8k after posting the ante and bb
plus 7 others.
hero has J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG raises to 1600. 7 folds . hero calls 800.

flop is 5 A J rainbow. (4050 pot size)
hero checks. villian bets 4050. hero raises all in and villian calls.

I had recently been moved to thie table when we got down to 30 left but I had been watching this table somewhat while playing. about all I knew about the villian was that he wasn't afraid to get all in against a better hand.
so when he makes the pot sized bet, I'm guessing KK/QQ and he's trying to represent the ace, or he has an ace but not 2 pair. I'm very sure my 2 pair is good at this point. I think he'll fold a pp that's not a set and he may or may not call with any ace but it's more likely that he'll call than fold with an ace.


to call would leave me with about 10k chips with a 12k pot so I'd *most* likely be all in on the turn anyways. good or bad play?

you can find better hands to defend w/ against an UTG minraise. w/ this flop, though, c/r your stack.
