    Default $4 180-man Getting short

    Villain is fairly new to the table so no reads. I'm getting short and need to get involved soon. How's my turn play here? About 45 people left in the tourney, 18 get paid.

    EDIT: converter fucked this up, tried to salvage the bet sizes.

    PokerStars (9 handed) Blinds- 100/200 Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, 5. SB posts a blind of 100.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls, 2 folds, MP3 calls, 3 folds, Hero checks.

    Flop: (Pot-t700) 7, 3, J (3 players)
    Hero bets t400, UTG+1 folds, MP3 calls.

    Turn: (Pot-t1500) 8 (2 players)
    Hero bets t1200, MP3 raises to t2300, Hero calls 1010 (All-In).

    River: 6 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Final Pot:

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    LOL too quick for me. Changed the numbers now, hopefully makes sense.

    You got the results left out on purpose?

    I'm not getting it all in on that turn. Straight draw hit and your kicker is complete garbage.

    What is he calling over 1/2 pot with except for a hand like JT or QJ? Or a set.

    Check/fold the turn. We don't beat anything but 99. Maybe he overlimped TT. Either way, we'll get the free river if we have the best hand.

    I didn't deliberately leave the results out, I just do it from habit.

    Thing is with the $4 180-mans these guys are more than willing to call down with way less than top pair. I was pretty sure I had the best hand on the flop and the turn isn't THAT scary, the second heart widens his range slightly when he puts me in. My stack is dwindling, I have to fire on the flop and that leaves me with an M of ~7 with the blinds moving up anyway in 2 or 3 mins. I figured it was either check/fold or get it all in, and my desperation to build a stack made me think "fuck it I haven't seen much all tourney, top pair will have to do here".

    I'm re-reading HOHII, my tourney game is so rusty at the moment with all the cash I've been playing so chances are I need to work on these situations.

    As played villain turns over 88, gg
