    Default TT on a suited board, played too aggressively?

    PokerStars No Limit Hold-em Tourney ($3.00+$0.40), Big Blind is t20 (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from triple-t
    (Format: PokerForums.org)

    saw flop|saw showdown

    MP2 (t2030)
    MP3 (t1480)
    CO (t1430)
    Button (t1660)
    SB (t1480)
    BB (t960)
    UTG (t1500)
    UTG+1 (t1480)
    Hero (t1500)
    MP1 (t1480)
    Hero is UTG+2 with .
    Pre-Flop:
    1 folds, UTG+1 calls, Hero raises to t80, 1 folds, MP2 calls, 1 folds, CO calls, 2 folds, BB calls, 1 folds.

    Flop: (Pot=t350) (4 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets t200, MP2 folds, CO folds, BB raises to t400, Hero raises to t900, BB calls All-In.

    I lead out to see where I am - with three callers, is it a bad assumption to think no one has already made a flush? BB minraised after every one else folds - he didn't show great strength pf and unless he's made a flush, I'm thinking I'm ahead.

    What's the opinion of my shove here? Would anyone have called or folded? I probably would have folded to a decent raise, but the minraise screamed weak to me.


    Turn: (Pot=t2110) (2 players, 1 all-in)


    River: (Pot=t2110) (2 players, 1 all-in)


    Results in white below:
    BB has Kd Ah, High Card, Ace
    Hero has Tc Th, A Pair of Tens
    Hero wins t2110 from Main Pot.

    So he ended up having a nut flush draw - my assumption he was drawing to a flush was correct. I took the hand down but began wondering if this was too risky at this stage in the sng with no reads on the villain. Thoughts?

    I would have folded this. No need to get 60% of your stack in the middle with a marginal, at best, hand. Also, check-minraise usually means he has the goods, or a draw to the goods. In this case, PokerStove says you are in a coin-flip as a 50.2% favorite.
