I fold preflop-Getting to see a flop for a discount with K10 isn't worth much since you're often dominated and out of position. Then again, you made it to the $100s before me /images/graemlins/mad.gif. Hehe, jk, how have they been treating you since you moved up from the $50s?

I called PF because I am an expert at bluffing out of the blinds. /images/graemlins/grin.gif The 109s are definitely tougher. Biggest jump for me thus far in terms of skill. Definitely beatable with basic SNG strategy but I think you need a decent post flop game to make them a better investment than the 55s.

I agree, but if you're going to get your entire stack in when a K flops you should probably save yourself some trouble and fold.

I'd probably check-raise the flop to about 200 maybe. As it plays out you had the better hand but I really don't like the idea of check-calling a marginal hand all the way to the river. Too easy to get bluffed off or call off substantial chips with the loosing hand.
