    I'd raise to t300 here. Early in any tournament structure, slowplaying never makes you, but it breaks you a lot. You also build the pot for future bets in the hand. I can't think of anything he drops with your raise, but that he'd bet with, but AJ, K9, Q9, and maybe he'd bet with J9. You got action here, baby. I think he's pushing to your raise.

    He beat you with QT? If so, he wasn't folding it on the flop anyway, but you wanna max on the JT, KT, KJ, AK, and AQ that'll come over the top.

    I like your slow-play, although on this board, as Alex says, you can prob stick in a raise. After the turn, why not push? The straight is more than obvious now, requiring nothing but an ace. If somebody has QJ clubs you're giving him the right odds to call...

    One vote raise flop. One vote push turn. Anyone else have an opinion?
