Not sure of my bet sizing on this one, should I have bet more pre? Is shove on turn to much? Thanks in advance.

Yes my standard rule of thumb is at this stage I would open 4x since everyone is so deep and then add +1 for every limper and since we are OOP I add a little more so for this hand I would have raised to 200

I think your raise size pf was fine, unfortunately in a $1 tourn. it isn't going to thin the field too often. 200 is better (as JDOG said) but may still end up with the same result.

 

Not sure if I would shove the turn, but almost any turn bet is going to commit you to get it allin on the river….so not a bad move.

Sometimes, at a 1 or 2 dollar tourney in the very early stages…I jam my whole stack in…usually getting called by lesser pairs. People put you on AK a lot…mostly they can't see passed their hand. I don't always and it has to be in the very first stages where i am unknown. People will call with bad hands. It also tells people that you are betting big with value hands…again if anyone is even paying attention.

 

My standard open at this stage though is 3 BB plus 1 BB for each limper and 2 BB for being out of position. I think the turn bet should be a little smaller. You are really hoping smaller PP and AJ will continue to call. You do not have any fold equity at this point nor at these stakes. Your jam on the turn looks like you're scared of the flush draw completing and you want to drive out such hands. They are not going to fold. So your bet should be for value against missed draws.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I will definitely start adding
a couple of BB’s to my raises when OOP, that is something I haven’t been
doing.  A10fouru, you were right, I was
afraid of the flush draw, though it turns out I should have been afraid of the
5!
