no reads just yet so all i'l be thinking generally is loose callers.

when i'm the one to raise it preflop it's easy to play as i'll have other hands i can rep, as caller it seems to be loosing me chips but then again it looks just too good to fold.

Q. will this be profitible play long term or do i leak chips long term?
Q. if long term calling does leak chips should i just fold it pre or do i make a 3bet?

    Well I dunno how you got down to 1500 obv but I'm peeling hand 1 pre too. I might be more inclined to 3bet it OOP if we had a bigger stack but our stack size here is awkward so I'd prefer not here.

    Hand 2 - standard peel on the BTN imo

    Hand 3 - again standard peel imo

    Just cos you don't flop the world everytime doesn't mean the call pre was bad.

    1st hand is call or fold, if i thought i had an edge over the bettor and caller its a definite call, if they are both good players id fold. and later on in the tournament im 3 betting it.

    2nd hand i would only ever 3 bet and use your position or fold, i dont think calling is bad at all i just find you can lose too many chips on flops you half hit, and you arent short enough to be wanting to get stacks in on a 2 diamond board.

    hand 3 definite call because of the great price you are getting....

    as lambert said the flop doesnt determine whether the call was good,

    weather this helps hand one was in the later of the 3, overall i wasn't getting anything decent and my blinds were draining my chips away.

    when i did hit my A i couldn't call because a cbet and min raise was done.
    the K10 had hit the turn but having ch round on flop, i decided to Ch the turn and when i did a player bet and a second player min raised.

    KJ my stack does seem to be low but it's one of them MTTs where i had rubbish most times. it must have all come it the LR semi and as well as direct entry sat as both these qualified me.

    limping didn't seem to be very common but when i take another look at my hand history i've seen lots of min raise pre, then on the flop they do a min bet, basically the sort of play we see later in the MTT has already started.
