[Hotrod0823]

Early in Stars 20+2 tourney.

I am dealt RED queens in LP. Blinds 15/30

UTG (1400) limps.

Folded to me (~3000)and I raised 150.

Button (~3700) CALLS 150.

All fold and we are heads up.

~375 in pot Flop comes K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I bet out 270, Button raises to 1350 ???

Hero???


I thought for a while and didn't like my chances against what kinds of hands CALL a raise and bet that hard on a K high 2 suited flop. So I folded [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Easy play??

Thoughts??

I think its safe to fold this. QQ is not the place to be on the line this early in the game, especially with the K on board. He could be donking it up by calling pf with K and a bad kicker, two diamonds, etc. , and you have plenty of chips to recover. It sucks, but I'd lay it down. Better than calling and him turning over K6 to beat you. Then again, I always make other players as fishies.

I would have folded here as well. You are early in the tourney and can make up the chips lost on this hand. You lose about 420 but calling is commiting half of your chip stack.
