I don't know
In Response to I don't know:
Because of the time it takes him to call the bet on the flop, I am about 68% sure that he has a 7. I do feel like I need to bet the turn. Is there a bet that doesn't look weak that I can get off the hand if he jams. Or should I chec the turn, with a view to calling a small bet and folding to a larger one? Ideas please...

Perosnaly i cant get away from this hand at this point id be betting 3/4 pot then if he came overe top id have to call but thats why im a loosing player.
You are out of position and this is the difficult thing.
I would probably bet the flop as you have... when he flat calls, he is most likely to have a K, a Jack, or a flushdraw, he might even have Q10.
When the turn comes down, it is hard because your opponant's stack size means if you make a sizable bet you are both getting pot commited and you must call the reraise if he shoves. A weak bet however may also induce a reshove with only a flush/str8 draw. As you have more chips than him im pretty sure the big bet is the best tatic to put pressure on, and if he has a jack, so be it.
However, in this spot i might check the turn if he is a tight player, i know it is weak and i am giving him a free card if he is drawing, but i will see what he does. If he doesnt have the J, he might think that you have it and check behind. He may also slowplay a Jack, so i would probably put a small stopper bet on the river, and fold to reshove. If he bets the turn big, im folding.
Interesting hand Wilhelm... What did you do by the way?
i dont think you did anything wrong! the 1300 into 4500 its a no brainer call imo, just ul.
I dont think its possible to put him on the jack exactly when he calls the flop, he could have the whole range of hands that i stated! But, i know what you mean about a sixth sense! Sometimes you just know!
I also agree about 15 seconds not being long enough, but i know others prefer the quick time. I have always wanted a time bank on non turbo tournaments!
