I am relatively new to posting on 2+2, but its moves like yours that I think help make SNGs profitable. Most people arent going to risk that many chips just to "steal" 75. Look at the blinds, this is a terrible move, you might be low stacked but not relative to the BB. You have so many hands you can wait for, I think there is only one persons stupidity here that needs evaluating.

please keep in mind that this is a $50 and the button is a solid player

I think that part of this play was a little tilt inspired . I had just gotten back from a B&M casino and ended up down $500 at 5-10 NL after getting cold carded then misplaying a hand. lol, so I left because I was on tilt and played SnGs instead [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Sorry for coming off harsh, I think you did sometime im guilty of far too often, and thats a) giving opponents too much credit and b) overthinking the situation. While your ideas on this hand are good and appear that you may have been right, I just prefer to wait till better hands when blinds are this low.

you pushed j9o to a raise? be the initiator, not the caller unless you have a real hand. i would rather push any 2 with no prior action, that push absolute crap like you did here to a raise. hoh is a really good book.

I would ask what about your own stupidity, but I would need to know what buy-in level this sit-go. Typically it dosen't take all of your stack to find out if sonmeone is trying to make a steal. The small blind has you out chipped 3x and is getting 3:1 with an under pair to what probally ammounts to two over cards.....I don't think I need to give any more numbers. It looks like your intellegence is at question... [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
