Oppo is LAG and has been reraising plenty and all in 4 or 5 times in first few levels, showing down with air. I MUST stop playing back at these players so early, but how should I play this against a standard player?

    I'm no MTT expert. Far from it in fact, but here goes.

    Like it pre flop.

    Flop bet is fine, if i am picky then i might make it 350-400 as i want other flush draws to come along and i want to tempt them with a good price. When villain just clicks back at us i probably just call and my reasoning for this would be that i want worse jacks to stay in the hand and a click back is usually strong in my experience so a call lets us see a turn card to try and hit. Also, a shove, as played, will fold out all Jx hands that we want to come along with us and will surely only get called by better which isnt good for us. If your happy to gamble and want an early double up then its absolutely fine but i think we only get called by better when we shove. I dont hate it but early doors sitting so deep i dont want/need to put my life on the line with tptk on a wet board but i am very nitty! lol.

    Like i say, MTT's arent my bag but thats my view on this hand.

    flat flop raise

    You never get better to fold and you are way ahead of everything you beat
