I decided to mix thing up a bit, i had a tightish table image + most of the times, they respected my raises. This guy' minreraise made me think he was pretty big cause he put a big % of his stack in the pot with little folding equity from my side and because of his and my position. So QQ+ AKs is what i thought, most probably KK or AA. But still, i think there very good pot odds and of course i called. I bet 1/3 the pot on the flop to make him lay down overcards or any strange hands that he might have out of what i put him on(he might be some idiot) and not bluff at me and make me face a difficult call... Is that bet OK? Then, i got good enough odds to call for the OESD+BDFD+runner-runner trips or r-r two pairs. What do you think of every desicion?
The tourney is 20+2EU Deepstack in Paradise and like to experiment and play a lil bit more fancy in this tourney cause i wanna perfect my postflop play and thinking process

C/R or bet into him bigger

don't give him a chance to shove over u on a bluff or semibluff

what if he had AK and shoved over ur bet - you still would have lost this hand, when u should have won the pot w/o showdown

Grindin so hard, Im smashin pussies left and right.

fold to his RR pf, doesnt matter if you're getting his stack 100% when you hit, you still need to win more than he has to make the call worth it. just pretend he shoved his whole 5500 when he reraises.

you dont make much sense in your thought process at all..

"So QQ+ AKs is what i thought, most probably KK or AA"

and...

"I bet 1/3 the pot on the flop to make him lay down overcards"

your bet on the flop will probably induce a shove from his entire range.

just fold it preflop, stacksizes makes it silly to try and hit something big

I'm not sure I understand the thinking process.

mmmkey . Next time I will try stg similar if i'm up against a player with more chips cause yeah... implied odds not enough against this obvious pushing-on-the-flop min raise by the shortstack. 10x for d answers.

Yeah I think the main problem is this hand is the inconsistency in your thought process. If you think he has most KK or AA preflop when he RR you, then you should have the same read on the flop and act accordingly. Therefore a bet accomplishes nothing because the range you have him on is not folding and you are forcing yourself to get your money in bad.

Also, given your read on him you should have just folded preflop. Despite his range being very narrow and transparent (in your opinion), you still don't have enough in the effective stacks to call here. He needs to be a little deeper here for you to flat and try to hit a good flop (I'd say about 2k more chips, given your preflop read).
