Re: Should I have called the floor?

Floor will do little, and guy with AQo was likely calling no matter what. Off topic but as it is, shoving in this spot isn't great.

Re: ($24) TPGK, going broke?
I'm not calling the turn when he checkraises allin. Check/folding the turn is too weak, but going broke like this is unnecessary too.

Re: $27: Top set in unraised pot
I'd probably bet 60 on the flop, but I can see the value of checking.
I definitely raise the turn. You don't have too many more chances to get your money in. You didn't flop top set to pick...

Re: $16: QJ (2 hands)
I'd usually check flop in #1.
After you bet the flop, calling the min-raise is ok, I guess. It depends on read. When he fires again on the turn, I'm folding. It's too expensive to go...

Re: $16: AQ (3 hands)
1. Yuk, but fine. A lot of times I'll just call in this spot PF, but I'm in the minority on that.
2. Folding is fine. I could also make a case for calling or shoving depending on reads.

Re: $16 - betting out with overpair against 5
Bet 100 and re-evaluate on the turn. You probably have the best hand, but a lot of cards hurt you. Bet 100 and hope the button folds so you have position on the turn and river. I would never...

Re: Few SNG Hands..(1+2 of 1000)
I fold the first hand. Generally, if someone make a big bet that makes no sense, I'm folding. If he's a bad player, you'll find a bet spot than this.
2nd hand...I'm not sure what to do. If...

Re: $5.50 Non nut flush on bubble
I don't like the fold. In a 5.50, it's hard to put him on the nuts. You've already put 40% of your stack in, so there's no way I could get away from it now.

Re: (78) Incredibly mundane TPNK hand.
I don't like the flop call at all. If he wants those 60 chips that badly, he can have them, IMO.
Normally, I would've just bet out 50 on this flop and go from there.
