Hi all!

Should i have played my queens a bit more agressively altough there were many callers to a raise? Was my playing correct?

(for some reason, i don't find this MTT in elephant. I thought elephant supported SnGs/MTTs on FT.)

Full Tilt Poker $1 + $0.10 Rebuy (1r+1a) No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t40/t80 Blinds - 9 players

BB: t3560 M = 29.67
UTG: t3545 M = 29.54
UTG+1: t3090 M = 25.75
UTG+2: t2560 M = 21.33
Hero (MP1): t3250 M = 27.08
MP2: t3570 M = 29.75
CO: t5965 M = 49.71
BTN: t5195 M = 43.29
SB: t5310 M = 44.25

Pre Flop: (t120) Hero is MP1 with Q :spade: Q :diamond:
2 folds, UTG+2 raises to t240, Hero calls t240, 2 folds, BTN calls t240, SB calls t200, BB raises to t400, UTG+2 calls t160, Hero calls t160, BTN calls t160, SB calls t160

Flop: (t2000) 8 :heart: 3 :club: 6 :spade: (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG+2 checks, Hero bets t666, BTN calls t666, SB folds, BB calls t666, UTG+2 folds

Turn: (t3998) 9 :diamond: (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets t999, BTN raises to t4129 all in, BB folds, Hero calls t1185 all in

River: (t8366) A :spade: (2 players - 2 are all in)

Thanks in advance to whom may reply.

in rebuy stages shove preflop to the reraised but you should 3bet it anyway

even with As they dont play well against more than two players

Reraise the reraiser crossed my mind, but with so many callers, i was scared someone got an ace or even a higher pair. You see, i don't like rebuying :)

Maybe i should lose some fear.

Thanks for the replies.

BTW, the all-in guy had A7. After winning the pot, he said he had a lot of outs, no doubt about that. But no reason to go all in when he had nothing. He could have the right to call depending on my bet, but not to go all-in. Am i correct?...

there is only 1 way to play this hand = that is shoving preflop after u just called and get lucky that some1 raise again after all those callers and in that big pot preflop u got to shove preflop to narow the field at least cos ur QQ will not play well multiway pot
on flop with ur stack u should bet like 1200 and shove any turn

You see, i don't like rebuying :)

First of all if you don't like rebuying play freezouts. You have to rebuy when you play rebuys quite often I would say and be happy you can do it.

As far as this hand goes you pretty much have to 3bet/go broke preflop I think with QQ.
If you flat I would push 4bet after the min 3bet.
If you do get to the flop with that preflop action you should push the flop. Or at least bet bigger and push turn like Rebuz said.

I agree with this, plus if you dont like rebuying, just dont play rebuys because you are going to get this sort of situation very often, people are quite prepared to gamble a lot early in a rebuy to build a healthy stack for later and will take a lot of risks to do so

again tight utg+2 players ... u can call it

but its a 1$ mtt in rebuy stage ..
so u should just play aggro

I whould raise this hand ... on maybe 900
and go allin preflop or on flop

push is also possible, depends on vilians, but most times 3bet is better

Thanks gyus for the replies.

This helped me understand that in MTTs there are different strategies to use accordingly to the type of MTT. Anyway, i think i suffer from the scared money syndrome. Have to get more aggro.
