This is a $5 + $0.50 PokerStars tournament.

Table: This has been a rather strange SnG as all 9 players are still in the game and blinds will shortly be going up to 75/150. Most of the players are loose 30%+ VP$IP, but they have just been passing chips back and forth for the most part.

Reads: BB is loose, but not crazy. He is running over 30% VP$IP and I have seen him call in a couple of situations where he had marginal to weak hands.

All comments are greatly appreciated.

Your pre-flop move is fine, though you could have also pushed instead of making the standard raise.

On the flop you should have pushed.
