    With that many people seeing a flop, I probably lead the flop and hope to get repopped. The min raise is pretty bad IMO, however I think min raises are bad in almost any situation.

    As played I don't think I'm folding the turn unless I have a sickkkkk read on the guy.

    Personally dont think there was any other way to play..maybe a raise preflop but this is risky at the best of times with small pocket pair. I think once the chipleader has the draw on the flop probably the only way to push him off it is an all in and even then there is no guarantee that he folds. He could lose an all in bet to anyone on the table and still have close to a million in chips.. I think it was just a tough break. I am not saying that I would agree with the call looking for the striaght if you had gone all in but he may have talked himself into calling the risky bet simply because if he won he would have over 2,000,000 chips and thats got to get him in the big money?
