Default Can you play AQs anymore weak tight...

My thought process was it was a little too early to commit alot of chips even though I could have (and probably should have) raised on any street.

Game #936083071 (Level III, Game #8) - 15/30 No Limit Texas Hold'em - 2005/08/17-14:37:59.6 (CST)
Table "Orango" ($10 tournament) -- Seat 6 is the button
Seat 1: slickmiester (1,330.00 in chips)
Seat 3: chumjood (635.00 in chips)
Seat 4: birdmn20 (1,380.00 in chips)
Seat 6: The Irishman (3,080.00 in chips)
Seat 7: ryan1131 (1,425.00 in chips)
Seat 9: scoremore (2,150.00 in chips)
ryan1131: Post Small Blind (15)
scoremore: Post Big Blind (30)

*** SUMMARY ***
Pot: 420 | Board: [ Kd Qd 5c 3s 6h ]
slickmiester lost 90 [ 2h 2d ] (a pair of twos)
chumjood lost 60 (folded)
birdmn20 didn't bet (folded)
The Irishman lost 90 [ As 5h ] (a pair of fives)
ryan1131 bet 90, collected 420, net +330 (showed hand) [ Qh Ah ] (a pair of queens)

I think the flop is a raise/fold situation.

If you want to play, you need to raise to define your hand and get rid of the flush draws. I would raise it to maybe 150-200. If re-raised, you can lay it down.

You're going to raise on every street with middle pair with 5 people in the pot? Yes, I could play even more weak-tight and just fold on the flop...

There are very few times in an SNG that I'll raise 1/4 of my stack with middle pair on a flop that 5 people have seen and 3 are still to act. That's just me though.

I said if he wanted to play that hand raise. I'd personally fold.

Folding is weak. He's getting great odds and if it's raised behind him he can get out without getting cut too much. I play it much the same.
