since you don't have a read, you're automatically gonna tag villain as a bad player is ludicrous. on top of that, you're gonna continue through with a flop bet with the thinking that , "he does'nt have a hand that can beat my A K, regardless of the fact that i don't have a read on him or the fact that he called my t200 raise pf either". that ludicrous 2Xs.

Seriously, have you ever played an SNG? This is not the 4k/8k at Bellagio. There are many, many players who call 4xbb raises with hands that don't beat AK. I don't need any kind of exceptional read on someone to assume that. There are many many "flop addicts", who just make the calls with KJ, A8s, QJs, 44, etc because they're pretty hands and they've won with them before. Most of them will fold the flop when bet into. There are some really bad players who will take a card or 2 off, but those are the ones that you would have noticed already.

Some of the reasoning in this thread is strikingly bad.

Finally, I'm fairly confident that check-folding here is a big enough leak that if it is your standard play (OOP after raising PF and getting HU) that you will not be a long-term winner in short-stacked sngs. It's that bad.
