Default Could I get some help on my MTT play with these examples

Poker Stars 10 mtt

Hand 1: this guy that min raised had been bluffing at pots alot. I put him on overcards with his min reraise with all the people in front of him. He had shown the willingness to bet big at times.

Flop: (t1050) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

Hand 2:
I thought that he might have been hoping to steal the blinds with his min raise, so I figured that since I had him covered that I would come over top of him. Given the stacks was this move right?

<font color="#C00000">Hero (t1604)</font>
<font color="#C00000">MP3 (t955)</font>

Preflop: Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to t400</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1579</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP3 calls t530 (All-In).

Hand 3: I felt that the big bet from the SB was attempt to take down the pot right there without a fight that is why I decided to come over the top, since the other player was about out of chips I wasn't too worried about him since I would see rest of the hand for free if he called. Was this thinking okay, or was this too aggressive?

Hand one: Pretty standard
Hand two: you have 0 folding equity, AK is easily dominated, fold.
Hand three: Standard

1&amp;3 seem fine to me, #2, I'd fold, you won't push him off a hand, and you are leaking your own chips with KJo which is easily beat, if you had a BIG stack in #2, maybe I would feel better about it.

You could be right about the minimum raise, but he's going to call a raise and KJo is just not good enough to call off 60% of your chips IMO acting as SHERIFF.

1 and 3 are easy plays. 2 you can get away from. Save your chips for position steals, or wait for a better hand. Don't get TOO impatient.
