This early in a tourney with deep stacks I dunno if I want to be calling a raise from EP with players behind me to act with AJs.

On the turn I am not sure what I would do with this. I can't really see why I would want to bet it against two opponents in this position.

AK is certainly in One Tek's range and we don't know what the player behind us is going to do. I don't want to get check raised or get forced out of this pot and on the turn I don't want to commit a load of chips so I might decide to just check this to see what the player behind does.

You shouldn't be worried about giving a free card here because an over card will give you either the nut straight or two pair (Yes I suppose it would bring 4 to a straight) and a flush card gives you the nut flush.

Oh and all that coupled with the fact I might be beat and can't get two opps to fold the best hand.

Thx crack, you comfirmed what I had been thinking on where I went wrong in this hand. Pretty sure this kind of hand is my biggest leak. I get a big draw like this(Nut flush draw w/ gutshot to broadway) and then bleed off a lot of chips.

Well, it is a big draw on the flop, but by the turn your odds are cut in half. Add that into an EP preflop raiser (Usually indicates big cards) with a broadway board with a player behind. That is the basic summary of why I am not going to bet in this spot.

I think by the turn this big draw turns into more of a mediocre draw that you want to get in cheap with.
