Hi everyone,
I registered ages ago but other commitments have meant poker took a back seat for a while but at long last I've made my first post. 2nd hand of the SNG so no reads yet. I just called the raise as I didn't want to get too much in there in case an A or K showed up on the flop. Is this the right way to play early in the tourney? Also what do you think of my flop play. What would you put the villan on? Please feel free to rip me apart here as I'm still quite new to this & need all the help I can get.

I probably just shove the flop.

I don't understand what you rationally would beat here with his 3-bet all-in after your c/r, but then again, donks don't play rationally. Maybe TT?
I like the flop c/r though, gives some solid information. |

Thanks for the comments guys.
Pudge can I ask you do you open push the flop or check then push when villan bets?

[/ QUOTE ] This is really where I thought I may have made the biggest mistake. When he re-re-raised(?) all-in, you're right there isn't a whole lot I could be rationally beating. I guess the real question here is should I treat all the other players as donks until they prove otherwise or treat them as good players until they prove they are donks? I'm not sure but I leaning towards the donks first approach at this level. |
