Not a bad preflop call, but a 3b/f would probably be easier. If you're suited, I like the flat. CO should be opening from the BU nearly 100%. When he opens from the CU it's a touch more likely he has a hand rather than just bullying. As played, I x/f the flop. You don't want to give the big stack chips when he can pretty much do anything he wants here. Is this the FT?

fold pre you are oop and your hand is trash, i wouldn't even use it as a 3bet bluff you have no blockers.

No its not the final table just outside the pay about 50 players left, 300 player tourney so no real pressure.

No I think calling pre is fine nearly 5/1

What about a donk bet? 6BB's up for grabs and he misses so often and I have SD and BD's.

A donk bet says to me pair of 7s or Qs and he can raise you here and barrel again on the turn with just about anything and really apply the pressure. Don't give the big stack an excuse to bully you. Check-call and reevaluate the turn.

Yeah trying to get away from the 'ABC' poker and improve my win rate from the BB.

If you run this and similar flops through CREV the results are pretty good.

Checking the flop is fine and depends on his cbet stat. If stacks were a little deeper could even call his cbet if his turn cbet is low.

This is truth that you had good odds to call, but you have chosen probably the worst target from your table. It is not so smart to mess up with the giant stack OOP. You dont have to much room for post flop play and if you wanna put pressure on him it would probably required all of your chips. I don't believe any kind of min raises would work post flop since you can expected re-raise 90% of the time. Do you really wish to risk your tournament life with hand like this?
