$20 SNG, Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed). UTG was limping about 75% of time, sort loose. I'd popped him with QQ last time so thought there was a reasonable chance he'd fold. Since I get blinded before other shortstack I figured i needed to do something.
Anyone do something different? Stop and go?


Hero (t490)
BB (t575)
UTG (t5205)
Button (t1730)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls t200, Button folds, Hero raises to t490 (All-In), BB folds, UTG calls t290.

Flop: (t1180) A/images/graemlins/club.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Turn: (t1180) 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

River: (t1180) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(2 players, 1 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t1180

Results in white below: <font color="white">
Hero shows Ks 9d (one pair, nines).
UTG shows 4d As (one pair, aces).
Outcome: UTG wins t1180. </font>

You aren't going to get him to fold. I would certainly just see a flop in this scenario. If a 9 flops, I think I'm pushing. If a king flops, I'd probably hope to check-call all-in.
