its a $3.50 tournament $1,500 guranteed start stack 5k each. this is fairly early on in the tournament blinds are at 100, 200... im in a small blind position holding 3c,7c. and seat under the gun raises to 400 and theres 3 other callers before it gets to me, the pots 1,900 so far. this is my thought process, big blind will most likey call i'm risking 300 for a 2,400 pot and IF( i want you guys to undrstand that) i thought to myself if i absolutly smash this flop with a flush, 2 pair or even trips this will pay off big time. oh by the way at this point i've got around 7.5k in chips. so i make the call and big blind calls... the flop comes. Jc 5h 5c...im pretty happy with this flop and i think its gonna pay of with my flush draw. so big blind bets 1,200. seat 5 calls, seat 7 raises to 4,300 and im thinking people have hit a J, and possible Q,Q,...K,K or A,A. i dont think your reraising on a flush draw that wld be dumb, you see 2 clubs and you dont want to see another card, your either protecting your over pair, or dont want to see an over card to your J im ruleing out that people are holding a 5. so i re raise all in they all call. long story short i hit my flush and won around 25 k for a nice chip lead early on in the tourney. What do you guys think of this play? honesty is the best policy thanks alot.
