In a sng table ($30 nl) 5 opponents to go and I have 3305 (leader) and the 2nd place chip holder with 1880 chips is on my right. I am in the bb (blinds 100/200) it is folded to the sb and he limps, I have KQ spades and I reraised to 600 (based on previous play I was about 100% sure I had the best hand), he reraises and goes all in (with Jc9h) and I call and the board ends up: Qd 9d 8h 4d Td. So he pulls out the straight on the river (at the end of the tourney my flush gets rivered by a boat).
My question is this: Did I play the pre-flop move properly? If I feel there is a chance he will go all in ( with a reraise) should I let him know I am pot committed with a raise of about 900-1000, or just reraise to 400 (assuming with this amount he will call to see the flop instead of going all in )and hit the flop hard once the top pair shows. Thanks
