call unless u want to try make him fold a set

I don't play these big tourneys, but I'll give this a shot....
Reraise to like 1000 and hope he comes over the top right then and there with whatever piece and draw that he has.
But maybe the stacks aren't right for that... meh I still try to get it in now.
*edit. I just read what I said and it doesn't make much sense...lol I guess I just like your chances with all those outs, getting it in on the flop somehow. -
Problem with calling this raise is that even though you have an open ended straight flush draw, half the time when you hit the straight it's the idiot end and it's going to be 4 to a straight and slow down any action you're getting from his sets and still crushed by a possible flopped straight.
I know in game i just get this in, but i really don't know what's optimal.
Bet/folding seems ridiculous, but might actually be ok, you're going to get flatted a lot and have a chance to hit gin on the turn, and can also double barrel when you miss.
Check/call flop? -
No ones ever folding a set too Moorman on the flop ever. I also think that Foggsy(seemingly a pretty strong reg) knows your game and what not and would prob shy away from raising you on a j78 if he was going to fold to another raise, 56cc is crushed by his bigger draws and is pretty close to dead even vs his value range, id probably just play it safe and call. I feel like i'd rather fold the flop then get it in.
-
It's obv very read dependent and with no reads I would just fold.
we have the ignorant draw and we could already be drawing dead if he has 910. Never wanna play a pot aggressively where there is a possibility of having zero outs.
Edit: didnt see that you had a flush draw too...I would prolly still fold, but it's very close -
call and eval, i don't like getting it in at all for people that advocate it at all. 910sootd, all premium club combos that would consider getting it in on this flop and also call a raise preflop AJc, KJc, Q10c, etc etc are all in the range that shouldnt fold if anyone in your spot puts in another bet and your drawing very thin vs all those. He could have a set but I dont think he folds one in this spot because of the million combos out there that can get it in on the flop here. Bottom set should probably even flat. I still call because you can define his hand much better on the turn and can easily turn the 4c to scoop it up ya knooow.

At risk of sounding more like an idiot than I already do....what's the point in playing suited connectors if you're not going to play when you get the open ender and flush draw on the flop?

This. call/reevaluate>fold>>>>> raise/call (vs. a solid reg)

Knowing you are going to Cbet a huge percentage of the time he could be raising with a lot of different hands here... He could have floated a call with a pretty wide range so IMO 4 bet then call a shove... I don't mind a call here but that still leaves you vulnerable on the turn... Obv you're way better than I am but I find it hard to believe you would play a straight flush draw even the slightest bit weak...

LOL crazy game isnt it?

I think low stakes buy ins it's easy shove, but in the super tuesday pple are not going to be raising u with 5jo on a 78J board. Much more likely he is crushed here. -
So these guys just play cards and not situations? They aren't good enough to know that Moorman is going to be raising a lot of hands and Cbetting a lot of the time so they try to take advantage of that? Just because this is the Super Tuesday doesn't mean people play ABC poker... Moves are still made and people still use bets to see where they are... I don't think you can simply put the guy on a set here or that he's crushed because even if the guy has JJ he's still only a 60/40 dog...

Why we aren't 4 betting and calling a shove here is getting a little nit picky IMO... -
Think he just saw the bet and raise and forgot it was post so it's different than saying 3b...but anyway, as shitty of structure as the 1k on stars is early, just reraise/call and gamble it up unless you care about 1k a lot. If u were deeper I'd flat (ya ya we are 150bbs deep now blah blah) but I meant if you were on ftp with a slower early structure and 5k starting stack I'd call.

I don't know dude, it's the first level. 10/20.... not many people gonna be making moves at this point imo.

Sorry... I can see how that may have been taken facetiously... Didn't intend for it to be that way but it looks that way...

ppl arent getting outta line here very often at all here, esp with 1 more behind. Vs any range a race is the best scenario. fold -
Seeing how I don't play HSMTT's, I can see a few points here.
1. I like 3 bet the flop, call shove here best. You have a TON of fold equity on Foggsy. He's most likely laying down Top/Top here to a 4 bet. If he's got a set, your not drawing dead by any means and in good shape to double at 10/20 blinds = juicy.
2. Smooth calling... eh I can see its point, but in my opinion you lose so much value out of your hand doing this. However, being this early in a tourney, are you willing to race off your stack with these blinds?
Another thing to consider, the image your going to set if this hand gets shown down. I know your very aggressive Moorman, but wow @ opening this hand UTG +1. Interesting situation at 10/20 blinds.

At this stage of it I would honestly lean towards a fold just because he could have a few holdings that really hurt your hand aj - j9 of clubs, 9t, or a set which would actually b the best hand you could see. Against many of the the jclub combos though your really only drawing to your str8 and str8 flush outs and if he rolls 9t of club your prayin for 1 out. Four betting him may get him to fold 78 and qq which i dont think is completely out of the pic but it pretty much comes down to if you wanna gamble this early on. I just feel that this deep and this early there will b better spots down the road.

1) Moorman doesn't have tons of fold equity.

2) Villain isn't raise/folding AJ.
3) Getting it in 150 BBs deep with 9Tcc is juicy. Getting it in with his hand is not.
