4th decision:

A few minutes after the one you played previously. Now there are only 2 players to bust before the bubble.

The blinds are still 500/1000.

In UTG+1, a player who likes to see a lot of flops opens with 2.2BB. He has 30,000 chips in his stack.

UTG+2, with a 90BB stack, calls.

You have now 34BB. In the BB position, you call with J♦8♦.

FLOP:

10♠3♦Q♦

You check.

Villain UTG+1 bets 5,000 chips.

UTG+2 folds.

What do you do?

In this spot I would just call.

Obviously we are never folding here with a flush draw and a gutshot. We could elect to raise here and play this fast and make use of some fold equity, however I'm concerned with making the money first and foremost and will be in a tricky spot if villain shoves over my reraise. I'd then have to consider calling or folding in a bloated pot for my tournament life.

My reason for calling and playing my draw slow is that I still have a good stack size, where if i don't hit or villain applies too much pressure on future streets then I can get away from the hand and still have a reasonable amount of chips approaching the bubble. If I hit my draw on the turn then i'm looking to get all my chips in the middle. Also there is the added chance villain will check back the turn and give me a free card if I don't hit on the turn.
