Default ($24) BVB with good player

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t60/t120
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2215
UTG+1: t1785
MP1: t1655
MP2: t1265
CO: t2520
Button: t1310
SB: t1405
Hero: t1345

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
6 folds, SB calls t60 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t180)</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (t240, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets t120</font>, Hero??

Villain was about 14/11 over 300ish hands. I also believe he is a 2p2er. His line looked a lot like complete with marginal hand and bet any flop. That said, is it worth it to play back here or am I better of just folding?

I push. Most likely hes got nothing and just trying to take advantage of your small stack size and push you around.

There is less than a 100 chip difference between our stacks.

Call. You have position and likely the best hand, but this can still be a trap a lot of the time.

let it go, SNG's don't give you the chance to make these judgement calls. no need to get involved. If you call, what are you hoping for on the turn? If you raise, you will be committed on the turn. Save it for a better spot.

hi pudge

i think you are overestimating how often you can get to showdown in these lower stakes tournaments.

why push?
if you call him down, he will prolly continue bluffing and you control the potsize; additionally a push will only be called by hands that beat you.
