A hand analysis for Wader

I am in a $20+2 MTT, 589 people entered, top 60 pay, guaranteed $15,000 prize pool. Starting chips are $1200

First hand action I am BB (blinds are 10/20)

I get dealt  :kh :jh

7 limpers to me, (yes 7!) I raise to $160 (my reasoning was sound I believe, 7 limpers at 20 each plus my 20 = $160)

2 callers

Flop comes  :qh :10h :ks

I bet $320

LP folds, the other guy takes almost the full 18 seconds to act before pushing all in.......

What to do what to do?

Maybe not quite the HA you were looking for, but I would be interested in other peoples thoughts here.

  • In my opinion, for $20, get in there!
  • Uh huh. Lotsa outs.
  • Ya. You've got about 40% of your stack in there already, you're getting more than 2-1 on your money and you are a favourite to win the hand. You are likely against 2pr or broadway. What was the question again?
  • Insta-call.

    LMAO
    OK
    First of all I check my option preflop. You are definately going to get a caller this early in the stage and your giving your opponent roughly 2:1 on his money. You also have terrible position to play your hand out in later streets.
    You have a royal flush draw (obviously huge), even if you opponent holds a set you are basically a coin flip. I might even try a check/raise here but you got your chips in regardless on the flop probabbly being a favorite.
    So my answer is definately call.
    Tough beat you took though I'm guessing he flopped the small str8.
  • I did call.

    Turn and river were rags, he flips over AJ for the flopped straight.

    Even though I was behind, I can't see myself ever folding this opportunity. I can't help thinking I am a huge favourite here, even though I am behind after the flop.

    I got rewarded with this...

    "You have been eliminated from this tournament, you finished 589th out of 589."
