Was i right to shove?

Keevil

This is about an hour into the TSP tourney on Tuesday night. I have about 4500 chips behind me in the small blind. 2 players call the big blind leaving me to make the rest of the big blind. Would you have raised in the small blind? As the flop came down i was putting the villian on a possible 2 pair? Was i right to shove?

unless your putting him on higher str8 here i don't really see what else there is to do

just a bad beat

accept it and move on mate

limping pre flop will eventually land you in trouble like it has done here

Keevil

Dont u think i was right to limp with two callers behind? It was only another 40 to make up the blind and i was hoping to hit a huge flop which i did.

Small_Dog

I would call the same as you would keevil
you are getting the odds to have a look

I just feel it is always when I limp I end up with a bad beat story

you have flopped near enough the nuts, played it strongly, got unlucky

not much more to say

Bad beat yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwnnn

LOL_RAISE

id probably complete the small bind if it was suited, offsuit just fold...flop play is pretty straight forward.

M8 dont take this the wrong way but if u want advice on this particular hand you should have only shown the hand up to your decision on the flop!!! and then ask question dont show the outcome because it does look like ur showcasing ur bad beat

This is normal thinking.
Perfect answer.
