In the few hands he'd played was aggressive post flop.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (7 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

BB (t910)
Hero (t960)
MP1 (t710)
MP2 (t1085)
CO (t2475)
Button (t250)
SB (t1610)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, T/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t75</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t75, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, BB calls t45.

Flop: (t240) T/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif, J/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t170</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t340</font>, BB folds, Hero ?????

I won't start playing AT until the blinds are worth taking so here I'd fold.

Yeah, drop it like it's hot preflop. I'll dump anything below AQo in this spot, and I'm still not happy with AQ.

AT has little potential to clean out an entire stack, and is likely to be dominated by callers behind you. You may want to limp and take a look at the flop. If an ace you hits, great, but not good enough to go broke with. Or you may want to fold preflop.

This flop I would fold. You are drawing near dead against a J, and you still have 700 left.

Raise pf, bet less on the flop and fold if raised.

I've got a feeling this is a leak, I run hot over 20 or so SnGs and start playing hands I shouldn't - semi bluff steals that cost me chips that would be handy down the line. I need to remember that I'm stupid.

I folded by the way.

This is a line of thinking that i rarely/never hear mentioned in this forum. Is so bloddy simple, and obvious, and yet, somehow never springs to mind when i'm playing.

thank you

Yeah, AT sucks. Level 1-3 I only play AK and AQs in position. I'd only limp 22-99. GL at the tables. Peace.

It depends on whose stack we're talking about.
