Default Re: 5.50 Called PF push w/A-Q offsuit

[ QUOTE ]
If I think I am a much better player than him, I think I wait for a spot that I can outplay him after the flop. Especially this early, I think I fold here. I am not all that excited about getting into a coinflip situation against a player that is less-skilled, this early.Let me qualify this by saying that I haven't played too many SNGs, and this is, in fact, my first post in this forum. Please feel free to correct any of my misconceptions. Is the structure of a SNG so fast that I am incorrect in thinking this?

[/ QUOTE ]I basically agree with you, but....Whether you are better than HIM isn't necessarily the issue. You may well not get the opportunity to play a big hand with him. In fact, there is a good chance he won't last more than a few more hands. There should be more players going crazy at some point though.Mostly I wanted to comment on "outplay him after the flop." This often means bluffing. Bluffing is not the way to go in a $5.50. People will give you their money when you have a good hand. Outplay him by betting and raising when you have a strong hand.
