Default KJo in the SB

30+3 party SNG- two hands in so the blinds are 10/15 and it is an exceptionally tough lineup so no one has busted yet [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

three limpers and i complete the SB with KJo.

flop comes
K,8,4 with 2 clubs (i have the j of clubs if you care)

I check- thoughts?
checked around to the last player who bets T50 in to a T60 chip pot.
I checkraise to T150- again, thoughts?
Lp calls, turn brings 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
your play?

I'd hate to give a free card to 3 limpers when I have top pair and a reasonable kicker.

I wouldn't have checked in the first place, but since you did, this seems like a good play. His bet indicates a draw or a weak K or something like A8, so you likely have the best hand.

There's 410 in the pot, and I'm guessing that you each have about 600 left. Therefore, he'll have to move all-in if he wants to take this pot from you. I don't often see good players bluff all-in at the 10/15 level. I suppose I would bet 150 again and fold if he moves in. Checking and encouraging a small bluff or weak bet would also be reasonable. If he checks also, you can then bet 150 on the river.

So what happened?

what happened?
i bet 100 and he raised all in on the turn and i split
thanks for the reply-
my thinking on the flop was that it looked like a win a little or lose a lot situation with my position. However when it was checked around to LP i felt it likeley that i had the best hand and that i could get it heads up at the least.
