Default hmm... Analyze this.

2nd hand on party 10 sng
level 1 blinds: 10/15
I'm in late position, raise 95 with kings.
4 callers pot is like around 400

Flop 3,5, 10 rainbow.

I bet out 300, someone reraises me to 600. If I call I'd have to go all in wtih around 400 left.
Should I have folded? The guy had trip 3s

Default Re: hmm... Analyze this.

In those low buy-in single table tournaments, i've noticed survival is not a priority with alot of the other players. You represented a strong hand and should be expecting callers with equally strong or better hands. However, any pair is considered great to alot of these people, and when they come out betting big on the flop, its a pretty obvious they have trips. So, do you survive or gamble on hitting your set? I would fold and target that guy as a bad pre-flop caller for later.

Also, alot of players are willing to risk getting knocked out in order to double-up early so that they can play the leader for the rest of the tourney.
