It's often either a flush draw or a crappy pair. Usually the crappy pair. This is a play I've noticed a lot recently. I'd probably call and river an A and then lose to two pair, but that's just me.

just lay it down and wait for another spot. bb has you covered. why lose the valuable chips this early on. you have a bunch of chips. keep those that you have more FE later on in the sng. i dont think most donks have the discipline to lay down top pair week kicker here or even top pair decent kicker for that matter. just lay it down.

Considering I'm getting 11-1 I think it's a question of trying to win the pot immediately or do I try for a cheap showdown?

Next to the mincheckraise of my continuation bet, I find the pf limp/I raise/he calls, donk minbet/I raise/he calls, donk minbet on the turn the most aggravating line I face in SnGs. From a decent opponent, what can this sort of line represent?

I'd call the turn, but wouldn't rule out the possibility of putting in a big raise on the river - especially if it's something like a king.
