the flop was 2-2-2

[FrontonPoker]

a local dog track holds daily tourneys, $45 buy in, no rebuys, start with 1500 units, blinds start at 50/100 go up every 15 minutes, top 10 get paid..
at this point in the game i have 2200 in chips, i am on the button, and dealt AQ [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].. it is 400 to call.. four callers, stacks are (after calling) 1000, 2800, 1500.. i raise to 1200, small and big fold, and get two callers..
the flop is 2-2-2.. now the small gets up screaming and hollering, so we can figure where the 2 was (later he SAID he had T2s) everyone checks to me, and i check as well (was this my mistake?) turn is a J, everyone checks, i go all in 1000 (second mistake?) everyone folds except for one caller, who was holding the jack.. the river was 9.. should i have gone all in after the flop? after a pre flop raise they could have out me on a pocket pair..

fold after the flop ( but what do I know)

I agree - with that structure, you probably have a better EV betting on the dogs.

Push preflop, else push flop.

terrible structure.

push preflop

push the flop

push the turn

better yet, have some drinks and play the doggies.

You have to bet after raising preflop after that flop...especially knowing the 2 is out of play. Everyone will think you have a pair and fold...or worst case Ak or actually put you on AQ putting them behind anyway which will make them fold.
