Default Re: TPTK facing a min-raise

Without some reason to do otherwise, against a single opponent early in an SNG with no obvious flush draws and only improbable straight draws out there I'm pretty willing to get my chips in the middle here. So the question is how to get KQ,QJ or JJ, which I think are probably the most likely holdings that you're up against, to come with you, wand to a lesser extent losing the least to the odd AA-KK. I think the line of calling this and then check-calling the turn is fine. If the turn gets checked behind, I make a pretty small river value bet. Otherwise I'm calling down.

EDIT: Also, as citanul alluded to, I wouldn't let it get you down that the STT forum isn't agreeing with your postflop play that much. While this is a great place to go for bubble advice, postflop discussions are kind of limited and so I don't think there's much serious postflop wizardry here.
