Lately I have been getting crushed by playing AK and AQ early in the PP $50 SnGs.
I'll raise to to something like 3-4x BB, and whenever I hit my ace I'll generally get called. So I usually think "ok, loose player who'll be gone soon" and then when I make a strong bet into the turn (no scare cards fell) I'll get re-raised all-in. Then it's "uh oh, I guess I'm pot committed, he's probably on AJ, guess I'll call" and he's got two pair on his A-little, every time. This has gone down like this the last 4 or 5 times I've hit an A in this situation.
Do you folks lay down in this situation? I would normally say "no way" but this is killing me lately.
