Currently I am struggling with getting ITM in these tournaments and yesterday I was kicked out while playing this hand. My main concern here is my betsizing and whatever I could considered folding on turn. I didn't have any information on my opponent in this spot.

    Standard really, good sizing on flop into two people on a dryish board, your only really scared of QJ OTT. Money needs to go in

    Unfortunate when you make a good raise and get 3 callers like that. But you can't get away from it.

    If you're having trouble cashing it may be that you're missing out on other spots to accumulate chips. Over a small sample it could also just be a bad run of hands like this.

    why x/c Turn, still plenty of hands we need to take value from.. im taking 3 streets of value here in almost all runnouts, smaller sizings though so to not get called by a super strong range only

    You can't escape a runner runner unless you play your kings more aggressive. This is a 5.50 tourney so don't expect good calls.
