1)First of all is my bet to the flop right? or should i take my free card?
2)What about my call to the all in?
I believe that i had the right odds even if he had a set. Is that right?

hero made the right bet, draw and 1 overcard. Was just bad luck. Should have folded after the all in.

Raise it to 500-600 preflop to avoid getting called by Q5, after that everything is fine, you have to call the all in

All in is a good play for this situation. But you must be push allin first.

Well played, I like the flop bet and when you bet the flop you should be betting with the intention of calling a shove. Villain could also possibly have worst flush draws or straight draws.

Bet was good and reasonable, however the call was bad. Too bad pot odds to call, too huge pot considering the stage of the tournament and only flush draw + 1 overcard

please dont show spoilers because influence people. Calling villain shove depends a lot uf u have reads on him. without reads is a little hard, but a this buy in call shove is ok, you have 12 posible outs if villain have top pair and you afford to make a lose because u are bigstack. If he makes a play with a draw you are favorite to win with 15 outs to come.

Villain check raised all in on the flop, he is trying to reduce your position advantage. His hand can be top pair, two pairs and you would still have some outs. I don't think his play is correct, with top pair bad kicker. He could be dominated sometimes and risking his tournament life. I prefer to call his all-in with other hands than just the nut flush draw and an overcard. The board just give you the draw, there are better spots to win chips, if you had the flush draw + a straight draw I would think more and maybe calling the all-in.

ok, so I worked little with equilab on this situation. pot is 9800 and you need to call 3800, so you need 40%. If you give villain AQ, KQ, QJ, 88, 66, 86 and 75 you have 42% equity, so it is easy call and that's being very conservative, because villain easily can have lower flush draws which you dominate. For sure call all-in on the flop. Pre-flop is fine, flop bet is fine too. Good bet size for a very wet board like this.

After the villain's flop raise there is 5852 in the pot and it's 3850 for you to call, so 3850 / (5852+3850) = 40% pot odds, as liu says above.

Your equity against any set is only 26%.

You do not come close to having the right odds if he has a set.

Of course we don't know if the villain has a set. I think a call or a fold are pretty close from an equity perspective. We have to weigh the villain's range toward sets, since he is more likely to be putting his tournament life on the line with a set than with a pair or less.
I call a loose player, fold to a tight player, and, at this buy-in, call an unknown player.

I think your preflop bet was a bit small. Betting 6-700 would put you in a greater position to take it down on the spot. I wouldn’t mind checking since BB villain could have straight draws, sets, top pair, two pair, especially with the small preflop raise. Free card gives you the chance to improve and then bet fold on the turn if you delay cbet and don’t hit. The way it was played, though, the call of his all in is not bad. Goes with math even if only slightly.

I agree, bigger raise would be correct play. I made this mistake couple times

If your opponent had set, he probably would just call or miniraise flop. So your call isn't bad here.
