Default $20 SNG PS, cont. bet follwed by hitting TPGK on the turn.

Obviously early in the SNG. I think if I am going to play the hand I should raise to 200 preflop (3xBB + 1 caller), but just want a general check on the hand. I guess the other alternative would be to fold preflop in this hand. post-flop play suggestions?

qft

also, once you donk and get called you should lock up. be happy that the ace came on the turn, but youre not going to get any value from a hand like A10. just check and try to get to a showdown cheaply

Why complete? Raising gets us a little equity as the BB will probably be folding and only reraising if s/he has a hand while completing allows for a BB raise against limpers.

Just completing puts us in a precarious situation as a T or an A makes post flop play difficult as we have no idea what the BB or the CO limper has. If am fishing for a four flush then I am probably better off just folding.

I am pretty sure I can get value off a passive flush draw and K9o+; why let the flush draw for free?

completing is better because you have the same problems with a raise, only worse, because now you have to bet the flop with an ace or a ten and call a shove. Id rather be in cheaply in a multiway pot than in expensivly in a heads up or 3 way
