Way too early to race or worse. Easy fold.

This is an insta call for me, but I'm a tourney donk so you probably shouldn't listen to that.
For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.
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.

So does every like the 3-bet?
Maybe CC here and take a flop?
{EDIT}
I feel like a three bet is a better play with so many left to act. Thoughts?Last edited by wastrel; 10-29-2007 at 12:00 PM.

The 3-bet is standard. Folding to the 4-bet is standard without a read, and I don't think seeing him do it once is enough of a read to risk our tournament.

The opponent really wants you to fold, so he probably does not have AA-KK, but QQ, JJ, TT. It is really a coin flip for all your chips, and there is no reason to do it this early in a tourney.

Opponent could very well have AA or KK. It's a value raise. Many players just aren't folding after 3-betting. Good players can.

I agree. Plus any decent raise is >half his stack, so why not outright shove.
