Preflop raise is fine.

I'd call with two overcards on flop.

With the line you took, just call the turn and river. You're happy to draw to a Q or a T on the turn, and you have huge odds to call the river.

Sure I have great odds, but chipwise the calls are pretty expensive. After calling all these minbets, I don't really have much left. But maybe that's the price you pay.

Problem is the flop raise is tiny compared to the size of pot, so villian isn't likely going anywhere, all it achieves is bloating the size of the pot, when you have third pair and no idea of where you are.

This situation sucks! I'm really lost as to what to do on this flop to be honest, really interested to hear feedback from the more experience SNGers. As for the min turn and river bets I think you have to call them, as he can always have a smaller pair like 99, 88 that you beat for it to be profitable to call...

Yeah, the flopraise is tiny. Don't know what I was thinking there. Maybe to get more info from villain. But after calling my raise (which is 4x his minbet there) he keeps minbetting.

Ofcourse I should be very happy with people who minbet their great hands (like on the turn & river in this case)...
