Default Re: SNG, I can\'t fold trips right?

I fold this pre-flop. I don't think your stack is deep enough to play speculative hands. (And this one isn't especially great either. Maybe if it was suited?) I just don't think you hit the flop often enough to compensate for the 50 chips you usually lose.

Given that you have top set and an OESD I'm more than happy to get my money in on the turn. If you're not best right now, you still have outs. Worst case, just river another Queen.

Table has been fairly passive preflop, a lot of limpers.

CO has played all kinds of hands like Q2o, 34o, A5o, winning some pots with only a high card, a couple with 2 pair, a flush, a straight - all over the place.

I wouldn't make the limp because you're dominated so often, etc. Flop is okay. By the turn you're not getting away.
