Default 11$SNG I think I misplayed this hand.

Chip leader is super aggro. Doubled up with 64off against kings earlier. I have been card dead forever, how should I have played this? Is this ever a push/raise?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG (t6210)
Hero (t1490)
SB (t2905)
BB (t2895)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t250</font>, Hero calls t250, SB calls t200, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>.

Flop: (t850) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t500</font>, Hero

I'd fold preflop and I'd also fold this flop.

Fold preflop. As played, check fold flop.

Well, you're calling 25% of your stack off, which at any time is never a good idea. But, this is the bubble, so now it is really a bad idea.

In a spot like this you have to be thinking about pushing or folding. To push, you have to be way ahead of a guys range and/or have lots of fold equity.

Most times, against an average $11 donky, you have very little fold equity once they raise. I think it's an ego thing.

As far as ranges, QJ is not going to be way ahead of his range.

These to factors add up to this being a fold.

As played you have to fold the flop as well. You only have a draw, and you need to have significant equity in a pot to get involved on the bubble. You just don't have that when you are drawing.

I suggest you email stars and get them to remove your call button.

I don't like calling off 20% of my stack ever, let alone on the bubble. If you're playing a hand in an opened pot at this stage, I would say you are pushing or foling. Say he is holding a big pp here and gets raised just like he did, anyone like a stop and go? Or would the standard push do the job better?
