This is at the final table of a 500 person tourney, so losing a spot meant a big change in payout. I raised 2.5 as the table was playing very passive, as BTN and MP+1 were folding everything.
I don't have many hands against SB so if I'm putting him on a range, I would think TT+ and AQ+...maybe KQs and AJs. With 3.75:1 odds and position I decide to see a flop...
When he checks the flop, I'm thinking most AA, QQ, AK, KQs are gone from his range as I feel he would bet them. I check back incase he is checking KK or AA as any c/r I fold.
The confusing part is when he 4x pot the A turn... I feel this is a very scared bet and polarizes him to AQ, QQ or KK...with KK I feel he would bet less...and I'm dominating AQ or QQ...
My dilemma was this is a make or break situation for this tourney and a really strange line...what are people's thoughts??
Cheers,
TC
