Have to admit being tilted a bit and not really thinking about this hand until after playing it.  2nd hand and couldn’t get away from it even though I put him something like ak/set etc.

Obviously the limp pre is terrible but as played is this a call?

IMO, preflop is where you're getting yourself into trouble.  I hate limping deep.

 

In this spot, I'm either minraising (if I can get away with it…either because I haven't raised bigger this level yet or I think the table's not paying close enough attention), or just dumping it.

 

By just calling you really lose control of the pot, and put yourself in tough spots like this.

 

But on flop, after a pot bet and a raise, honestly I think we need to show some discipline and just dump it.  At this point we just have a naked flush draw, and we're putting in way too much of our stack to make it profitable.

You have to figure here your 3 isnt live and we are only drawing to the naked flush draw.  If you are in a super gambly mood stick it in but otherwise I'd recommend just folding and being able to accumulate chips elsewhere in what I'm guessing is a pretty soft tourney.
