Hi guys , I started to take this seriously and this is my first post , i played this hand today and i really appreciate it if you tell me how i could played it better

PokerStars - 200/400 Ante 50 NL FAST - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

Hero (BTN): 23.58 BB
SB: 0.48 BB (VPIP: 25.00, PFR: 25.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 4)
BB: 8.51 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)
UTG: 92.4 BB
UTG+1: 39.2 BB
MP: 48.53 BB (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 5)
MP+1: 25 BB
MP+2: 35.96 BB
CO: 8.52 BB

9 players post ante of 0.13 BB, SB posts SB 0.35 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.48 BB) Hero has 4c 4s
fold, UTG+1 calls 1 BB, fold, MP+1 calls 1 BB, MP+2 raises to 4 BB, fold, Hero calls 4 BB, fold, UTG+1 calls 3 BB, fold

Flop : (15.48 BB, 4 players) 6c Td 8s
UTG+1 checks, MP+2 checks, Hero checks

Turn : (15.48 BB, 4 players) 2s
UTG+1 checks, MP+2 bets 4 BB, Hero raises to 19.45 BB and is all-in, UTG+1 raises to 35.07 BB and is all-in, MP+2 calls 27.83 BB and is all-in

River : (98.6 BB, 4 players) Qc

UTG+1 shows 9h 8d (One Pair, Eights)

MP+2 shows Qs As (One Pair, Queens)

Hero shows 4c 4s (One Pair, Fours)

SB shows Ad 6h (One Pair, Sixes)

MP+2 wins 98.6 BB

The reason i Jammed is that i read MP+2 as AK or AQ and i was right and i considered MP+1 out (Well i was wrong)
On the whole thing i guess i should have folded before the flop but as i called i tried to rely on my read and ifailed.
I really appreciate the feedbacks

Thx

Preflop I dont hate your play to much knowing this will be a multiway pot, if you hit your set for sure you will get some value.
On the flop check behind is the right move.
On the turn what the...Santa Claus was that ? You cant do this move on a tournament in a multi way pot. The risk is just to big, even if you put them on that range, you lose the tournament if you are wrong. And this tournament looks like a freeroll or something with a small buy-in, people here will never fold so easy, you can´t think you can trow them from the pot with a move like this.

Good luck !

If you were playing >50bb effective I would call for set value as well. Now you are not deep enough to call for set value. As played you need to fold the turn with only 44. It’s to likely you are behind in a multi way pot that you need to fold for sure. Now you are indeed playing for Santa Claus :f_wink:
