$20+2 PP SNG Laydown

[pyroponic]

Sorry about not converting this, I keep trying to use Bison's converter and it's not working? I paste it as is and it spits out nothing. Anyways, I was wondering how I should have played this differently (if at all), I was short stacked and I hit the flop pretty hard, but had to throw this hand away when I was basically facing two all-in's (I most definately would have called if Tiggity folded, I was pretty sure the original bettor was going to push). Should I have played the flop more aggresively? Was I laying down too strong of a hand? Any input is appreciated (and if you could advise me how to use the converter that'd be great, sorry about using handles, once I figure how to use the converter i'll disguise them).

You cant make this laydown in a 20+2. Payoff the trips or straight occasionally.... but quite often you will double or triple up off players on draws or hands like AQ and AK, or lower 2 pair.

Think about what you did on the turn.... you hit top 2 pair... then you check fold. The board is kind of scary... but I dont see this being a good lay down. Its not that its always the best hand in this situation, but I think its often enough where you need to go through it, for pot odds alone.

i dont lay this down. I cant believe any of ur opponents has jj qq or kk based on preflop play, but u were playing with them i wasnt. 66 is a possibility. do you think these players would play a10 like this fast on the turn? What exactly were u hoping for on the turn and river? that it got checked down?

[pyroponic]

I basically knew the bettor was going to push, I felt that if I had to call two all-in's my chance of being up againt a set was increased, I was going for the check-raise since I was out of position. I don't want you to think that since I checked the turn I was going planning on checking this down, I was going to check all-in but when I had to face two of them I felt like my hand was not way ahead.

If this was the action on the flop, *maybe* I'm folding.

Having top two pair on the turn and being shortstacked, I'm absolutely calling/reraising all-in.

If I'm up against a straight or set, so be it.

I never give much credit to min. raises (preflop and flop), so I wouldn't even think anyone has AQ.

Your original problem was min-reraising and not, say, reraising to 200/folding to any more action and then pushing on the turn.

Your secondary problem was not pushing on the turn.

[timprov]

What's with all the min-betting? You had me thinking this was limit for a moment. Bad on all sides.

ya i thought it was limit at first as well.
