Lucky or good?
Big play last night in a 2 table Stars SNG. At the time I felt a call was the right move but the more I think about the more I think this was a hand I should have gotten away from. Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
3 players left blinds at 300/600
Button has app. 7000
SB has app. 7000
I have about 10000
I post the BB and look down at 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Button raises the minimum 600
SB folds
I call (I'm pretty sure this was the right move)
Flop: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
I check with bottom pair and nut flush draw (not sure why I did that except that both of these players had been betting my draws for me all night and not folding when I lead out)
Button goes all in for 6000 or so.
I think briefly and call.
Button turns over AA
Turn: blank River: [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
I win with the flush.
This essentially sealed the deal and I went on to win. However, the more I think the more I'm sure that this was a hand I could have gotten away from pretty easily--after all I had only voluntarily put in 600 so far. My only thought at the time was that his push meant he had a good, not great hand i.e. QQ or JJ perhaps with a heart and so I had a lot of outs.
Was this the right play or did I just get lucky?
