    I felt 100% that I was ahead on this hand all the way up to the river. Felt he'd of raised me if he had 2 pair or better. On the river, if his hand improves to 2 pair I don't think he's moving in here because 2 pair might win the pot, on the other hand he's not getting me to lay down a straight or a better 2 pair. So my thought process here is did the Jack give him the straight or not?

    Was wanting to get some other thoughts on the hand. Thanks

    you should have pushed more on flop and turn to avoid this situation, ..

    however, at this level of tourny people tend to push all in with any two shetty cards .. so you made good calla dn you were rewarded
