Default $11 AKo - Too Timid PF?

There was a time when I would have raised All-IN PF with this hand (Although probably not this early in the SNG). . But I am trying to play them a little slower after another's initial raise.

I think on the flop I should have either folded or raised. My call was pretty awful.

No real reads on my oppenents.

Preflop is fine. You can't rr this OOP against a raiser and a cold-caller. Flop should be folded, I might float in position, but OOP is spewing.

How can you have no reads at level 2? Two people are out of the SNG, how did they get knocked out? The villan has 2198, that means he has played at least 1 pot. What I am trying to say is that information you should have you do not have, that is a problem. A MUCH bigger problem than you flop play.

If you can't follow the action then maybe you're playing too many tables. Thats the point I was trying to stress.
