I was just reviewing some tournament hand histories and came across this hand, which I almost just skimmed over. The fold to a min re-raise caught my attention, and then I started wondering if I botched the entire hand. I guess I'm really just trying to re-examine all of my play, and this seems like the type of hand I wouldn't normally ask about so I figured I might as well get some thoughts.

ugh. well, i fold pre flop, but if you raised, i probably wouldnt do a continuation bet with 2 other players in the hand. you did well folding to the min raise though. holla

I'm switching from T1500 to T800 SNGs and folding AQs is hard to get used to. I've been limping in EP and folding to raises but a couple 10ths with TPTK should solve that.

Ok so:

1) Fold PF. If I'm MP3 instead and no limpers do I then raise?

2) Check/Fold the flop instead of bet.
