    So, I know if I don't hit, I'm beat, but I feel like I had the odds to call each of those bets, even the turn bet. Should I have called there, raised at all? This was first hand I was into in an MTT.

    Three handed on the flop this early, I wouldn't like a semi bluff on the flop here. The small raise PF is really tricky and stupid by the raiser, but I'm thinking bad Ace. I don't think you should've called PF. Your position sucks and your implied odds are great, but the dead money will feed their chips to you. No need to play extra hands like this. You have a very deep stack and you can get more chips elsewhere when you have a hand.

    I'm not saying, "Never play 68s early in an MTT." I'm saying that your position sucks.

    looks standard to me, you could raise a little for a free card play, that may disguise your hand, but i think that is too advanced, just draw, and they will pay your off if you hit, although with the belly buster outs, I may get tricky and sometimes, but this pot is too small.

    I was thinking the same thing, Beav, about the free card, but at this stage, it's too big a risk without position.

    JN1, this is a case where I would've posted everything before the turn card is flipped over. You could've picked our brains a lot more. You gave us too much information to see what people are thinking in this situation.
