Fold preflop.
If you for some reason MUST play this hand, raise to 3xBB and fold if anyone plays back.

I fold preflop. Agree if that if you have to play, raise it up and hope they fold. On the flop I probably fold and wish I hadn't limped preflop. On the turn I check, then fold for the third time.

Not trying to be rude, but what are you trying to accomplish by limping preflop with this hand?

And what are you raising for on the flop? Do you want him to fold or are you betting for value?

And why do you seem to want to get all your money in on the turn? I just don't get it.

Folding preflop is the best play here.

You generally don't want to be a high blind limper in these sng's, because eventually good players will catch on and exploit your mistake.

Definitley fold pf. From all the posts you have on the front page it seems like you are limping way too many hands in all levels. Tighten up early on, and pretty much don't limp at all in later levels you should be raising/shoving instead.

With these stacks I assume it isn't a normal turbo and some type of multi table sng? If so I like making it 5-600 with this hand if the blinds occasionally will fold, J9o is plenty for a steal in these.
