Or maybe standard play…
In a prestigious live tournament. Blinds 300/600. My stack around 14,000 and I see 5h5c on the button. Everyone folds and I raise to 1700. The BB calls (having me slightly covered). Flop is 4c5d8c. BB checks and I bet 2000. He raises at 5500. I go all in and he calls showing Tc6c. On the river he completed the gutshot str8 and I am out of the tournament.
I was discussing this hand with some friends and half of them seem to aggree his play was awful, whereas the other half admire it. Any comments?
Thanks!

I don’t think his raise size was particularly good, but you two were destined to get all-in on that flop.

The villian’s preflop call was somewhat debatable, but in a tourney, you have to widen your ranges at times. Post flop, he isn’t going anywhere, I like his play there.

As Donkstar stated, his preflop call was pretty poor with 20BB or so stacks.

I actually would have liked his play better if he bet 3-bet. He should be wanting you to fold and he is going to pick up that advantage by being the person pushing versus the one calling a push.

I hate the villain’s pre-flop call, and am not wild about his post flop raise to 5500 either; though, the result would have been the same. Since 5500 was committing him anyway, I would have either folded or pushed all in on the flop. You would have puckered and called with your set, but with anything else, you could have easily have folded. After all, with the hand’s betting history, the villain could just as likely had a 76 instead of Tc 6c.
