Hello,

Could I get some feedback if my bet on flop was a good one or a bad bet please?

*First hand of tournament

Raised to 5 BB because of one caller and the SB & BB behind to act
All of them call, afterwards on flop I made a pot sized bet for any flush draws but again was called by everyone
After that I just gave up with the turn completing flush draws or being that 3 called probably a set

Thanks

Flop bet seems too big. hands with 2 over cards are likely folding to a bet this size, and you want to try to get a call from worse hands, so I'd go more like 350 or so. That way, you're overcharging the flush draw and getting calls from hands like AK, AQ, 88+, but losing the minimum when you're beat.

Thank you for the feedback Gerb, you make a good point, I'll try and use that from now on :)

Good fold on the turn, but you should bet smaller on the flop.

Thanks for the input, yeah I was just trying to protect but I mean 3 callers I should have figured a smaller bet would be better, I'll try and remember for future occasions :)

Good read on the turn at the end it was a set against a full house from the flop. As there was a pair on the board you could be more conservative.

Thank you, yes I guess I wanted less people to call preflop, maybe only isolate one but then again maybe that would have cost me more at the end haha

I think your flop bet was arguably ok. I would have preferred closer to 3/4 to 4/5 but 2/3 or Pot is ok as it is the first hand of the tournament.

When you get the 3 callers and the flush completes, I think you made a great fold.
