Firstly, advice on raise size pre given that it worked before? I was thinking min r may achieve the same as 3x
Secondly, thoughts on flop bet size?
Thirdly, villains range on turn?
I feel like a decent A would repop me pre and any other 9 (K9,J9,T9) would probably check back turn to get to showdown cheap.
I think in general when you are raising sb vs. bb you gotta make it more than your standard 2-2.5x at this point in the tourney. Even though it worked before, you kinda set that as your standard for sb vs. bb in this particular tourney and I dont think it is the optimal bet. I bet 2.5-3x sb vs. bb, anything smaller and bb is getting way too good of odds and gets to play in position vs you.
Flopt bet is fine in my opinion. Think it could be slightly bigger but seems fine.
Villian could have a wide range on the turn. We dont have a ton of information because we checked turn, but then again, it is hard to two barrel with your stack size in this spot (which brings me to think, should we have even got into this pot or just folded pre?). I do think that the villian can have a lot of Arag's, 9x's, and/or some medium to high clubs. Anything in that range can call pre, float flop, and bet/steal turn.
I think this hand is an easy fold pre with a 20bb stack even though bb has folded to you in the past.
PF 2.5 to 3X is my pref. I think the fact that you already stole once actually makes it harder to do it again here with small raise
Flop size is fine, taking a shot on a scary board.
Range is wide and most hand in it beat you (2 clubs, A, better 9s) I disagree that (K9,J9,T9) necessarily check back if they are afraid of a 4th club
his line makes sense to me with a flush or 2 pair. The only combos you beat are 1 club draws (say 7c8x) or so. Hey your tried to steal, took a shot on flop, didnt work out, let it go, no need to risk your tourney life on a read with MP MKicker IMO.
