[/ QUOTE ] I kinda disagree. Considering this is a $10 tourney, I have not seen many players bet like this with hands that beat yours. This may go against the "play TIGHT early" SNG strategy, but I like my hand here. I'm definately not afraid of the guy who re-raised last. He's trying to protect something or get everyone out - very unlikely he has you beat. The first raiser I might be a little worried about, but his minimum raise could very easily be Ace ten, two hearts, or a pocket pair. He could have thought you were weak because you only bet 1/2 the pot which looks like you may be drawing to a hand. I would play this hand strong a lot of the time. However, folding is a good play if you really think you may be beat. I definatly don't think it is an autofold situation though. I could be wrong. If you don't want to risk a big portion of your stack here, then don't - Wait for a better spot. Playing this hand strongly is just what I would do. Many times you will find yourself in the position of have a very big advantage in the hand AND getting paid off big by players who don't know any better.

Re: Good fold?
Call or Push. I would guess you're against a big T and a couple of hearts. What are you afraid of, a bigger 6 and a pair of Ts?

Re: Good fold?
Sure, if you don't like doubling/tripling up.

Re: Good fold?
I was afraid of TT or a bigger 6. Plenty of players limp early w/ hands like A6 at this buy-in. I fold and the original raiser pushes and is called by the second raiser. They both turn over AA! [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: Good fold?
I find it amusing that both of these idiots limped with aces, then started playing them fast on a paired flop with the big blind betting out. This is exactly why you can't fold this so early--all the idiots are still in. And, when the idiots have the hands you're worried about, they usually slowplay them till the turn/river. You're almost always ahead here.
