Re: A SNG hand i just played..
with a caller of the blinds you are not going to steal and your hand is not good enough for a preflop raise here. as you say, people are calling with anything to see a flop so why raise with your hand?
on the turn all your opponent needs is a Q and you are out. there are four cards to a straight here and now you are raised all in. plus even without a straight you can be beaten by a number of A hands. this is a tough call but i would rather be the pusher than the pushee with your hand. it is easy to say now outside the heat of battle that you shoudlnt have called, and you shouldnt have. this is one of the problems with hands like KJ is that if you are in a big por you are not going to be in good shape.
