i would say that you should have at least called the flop now if you folded the bet on the flop then i would understand but i would say that you played this wrong in that case i would have put them on exactly what they hade A? vs small pockets so the q on the flop would have told me that i was prob ahead with 1010

The blinds were 25/50 - so 3BB bet, I would have put them on a bigger pair then what I had.

would be nice to have paid to see the flop, then act as the actions of oponentes.A position was not so bad, shame worth paying because the bet was not high.:confused:

I certainly would have called pre-flop. You don't include any reads on these players so I'm wondering why you assume they have to have a bigger hand than 10s to make a standard pre-flop raise.

However, if you had called, you'd have had quite a tough decision after the flop...

I would have reraised. no way to really know where you are without it.

Probably 2's would have folded (or call/folded after flop). If AK calls then outplay after the flop (i am negative sometimes but i don't worry as much if a Q comes out versus an A or K). If AK goes all in then its a matter of whether you can stand the heat of a race that early in the tourney (to me it depends on the tourney cost vs my bankroll). Of course he could have you dominated (JJ, QQ, KK or AA) but those "cooler" situations are going to happen and we must live with them.

Tens are scary as shit when someone calls you but keep in mind that he/she could just as easily be doing that with 99, 88 or lower.

Best of luck.
