Fold pre, not a nice hand to play oop
As played you get called in one spot which is ok. You are the biggest two stacks, so you don"t really want to get in a big pot with a marginal hand which is going to be hard to play oop. The flop is not too good and really misses you range, does not really hit a caller either, no obvious draws ect. I don"t dislike the flop bet too much as he is going to give up quite often which is fine. Bet size is ok.
When you get called he can have a 10 or some kind of under pair to the 10. Looks like you have missed as well on that flop. I suppose he could be floating. Maybe there is a case for the turn bet based on this but I think it gets called a lot once the flop has been called.
I would usually just check/fold turn as I don"t think you get too many folds on the turn which call the flop, although you might get them off on the river. if I do fire the turn I am betting most rivers as well (not a king or a jack though). I don"t want to get in a big pot though.
Fatcatstu:
We discussed this at the time and you weren"t so mean :p
As it happens, I bet the turn and he folded.
This feels like a long time ago now, I have played a lot of hands over the last couple of days!
I think at this point in the tournament I was pressing the gas and looking to put pressure on every hand.
He has to be damned sure that he is ahead to continue against a big stack like the one I was wielding. It felt like a great pressure to fire some bullets at him and lay down a marker.

So a few days ago, I started playing poker for Bankroll Supply!
At the minute, I am part of a group grinding out satellites on Party Poker, its not the most glamorous thing in the world, but Im really enjoying myself.
I have made a decent enough start, and am in profit for my 3 days played so far, and when I get used to the sats and how they play and what tactics need to be employed I am sure that I will do well at them.
I have played about 3000 hands since starting, and I am already becoming immune to some of the fantastic beats playing large volumes of hands online can bring, I cant promise that will transfer to my Live game however.
It HAS reignited my passion for poker, and I am very much looking forward to Vegas, and am confident I can do some damage over there.
10 days time. Not long to go now :)
