Okay, 1st..

Despite the results here many things are wrong here.

Early in a tournament you are usually better served folding this with your 1k chipstack. ( I won't ask how you've lost 1/3 of your stack in the 10/20 level.)

If you do decide to raise NEVER EVER EVER raise the minimum to open a pot. Raise it 3-4 times the BB.

Now once the flop comes you can't be happy that you have 3 callers. I wouldn't be putting much into this pot at all at this point. DEFINITELY don't raise here. with 4 people in the pot there is one hand you can really beat and that's j/10 (or a moron playing 7/10)

The turn is an okay card giving you a straight draw but you have to realize that in a multiway pot you are almost guarenteed that someone is on a flush draw.. so your jack of spades is a dead card.

Fold the turn. There isn't much that could come to make you feel good about your hand. The queen would be a really bad card giving any jack the straight. The 10 of spades gives the flush. you are drawing to MAYBE to the last 10 if no one has a bigger kicker than you already or a made straight.

I know this is a lot to think about in the short span of playing a hand but with time you'll begin to realize these kinds of things.. you have to think to yourself : What can I beat??

Heh, my bad. Just looked at one stack. My apologies.

Fold pre-flop.

Gotta agree with everyone else, you shouldn't be playing Q10 UTG here and especially not for a min-raise.
