I am pretty much self taught when it comes to NLHE tourneys...I mean I play small stakes and have read SSHE and HEFAP, but neither one really covers NL or Tourneys, just basic principles that are helpful. anyways...here is a line I took w/o a read in a Step 3 sit&go at party.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t15 (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP2 (t915)
MP3 (t1615)
CO (t2212)
Button (t940)
SB (t985)
Hero (t975)
UTG (t970)
UTG+1 (t915)
MP1 (t473)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T/images/graemlins/spade.gif, Q/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, CO calls t15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t45) T/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 6/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t75</font>, CO calls t75, SB folds.

Turn: (t195) 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t125</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t300</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t620

any and all criticism is greatly appreciated.

I probably bet less on the flop. Other than that, it looks pretty nice.

That's pretty standard, although I would've checked the turn to see what my opponent did.

I don't like checking the turn, just because in case he throws a big bet out like 300, I don't wanna have to fold the best hand.

it said betting the turn which is the opposite of what I meant...

He did throw out a bet of 300. And you did fold the hand.

yeah but he raised me. If I checked and he bet 300 it would be more likely he was bluffing.
