Default Re: (Stars $27 turbo) What would you have done?

I either fold and watch 99 and KTs both go all-in or go all-in and get called by AA. I'm not sure which is more frustrating, but I do know I'm more likely to be playing the next hand when I fold.

Do you really see a push behind here? That's a pretty strange line for either player who's yet to act. It seems more likely that it'll cost you 100 to gain 660-860, which should warrant a call for set value, at least.

I guess I have more faith in the value of my hand for a cheap reraise than I do in passive-then-laggy behavior behind me.

I think I'd call for set value. This should be very easy to get away from postflop.

I meant only that you often see some really strange things happen on the first few hands of a SNG, even in the $27s.

He has AA, but the other guys aren't folding for 100 more either. Call and check-fold if you don't hit a set.

too early/hard to discredit the AA. way monster pot - unlikely to get pushed over from behind. i'd piss away another 100chips for a miracle flop looking at 1,000 shiney coins in the middle.

I folded. i should have called for set value. both of the other callers called. flop came down three unders to my QQ. UTG bet out and 1 of callers called. brick turn, bet, call. brick river, bet, call. UTG showed AKo, caller showed 66 for a pair of 6's and the pot. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

You folded?! Yuck.

Although I'm folding to any action on a non-Q flop.
