Head Ups in a Tourney - Can you get away from a flopped pair?

[Poker Jon]

Hey All,

Just a quick query about a play I made last night.

1 table SNG on Stars last night.

Heads up, I had a very slight chip defecit (I started with a 2.5k to 10.5k defecit and had worked it back to about 6.5k to 7k).

Blinds are 200/400
I pick up 87s in the small blind and called. Was raised a further 400 which I called again (wrong move huh!). Flop come 10, 8, 3. I check player bets 600, I decided to find out where I stand with a raise of 1800. PLayer then re-raises me all in, I call and he/she has K10 and I go out.

I think I played the whole hand poorly. I felt my check raise was maybe too much, as I felt that I couldn't get away from the hand once re-raised back in, as I had the chance of hitting runner-runner straight of even trips.

What would you guys have done:

a) not completed the SB
b) not completed the raised BB
c) bet out the flop and folded to a raise
d) check-raised less on the flop

I get the feeling that I probably should have bet out the flop and folded to a raise.

I must say in my defence though that the way I had built my chips up to almost even was by calling an all in bet by the other player when he had two overcards and I had a pair. I thought he may be making the same play again.

Any thoughts? Can you get away from a flopped pair in heads up play?

Thanks in advance for the grilling on my play.
