Villian seems pretty loose but its early on in the SNG... any six beats me and AK beats and all the connectors and 55 or w/e but theres alot of hands that are easily in his range that i can beat... like AJ- ...

This is a tough spot, why do we call his min raise? I think we fold on river is the correct line.

I thought the pot had already been raised. Folding here pf isn't standard. As played, I really don't like going broke here. You might check the turn for pot control. Villian has a draw, a 6 or an ace. This is a nothing pot and I would rather conserve my chips. If I had AK, I'm going broke. This min raise is really hard to deal with. I guess he has a 6 or an ace. Tough spot.

jrok, this is a 20 and OP said villain is really loose. This could be so many hands we beat by the river. If villain is loose the could be all the Axs we beat. We're ahead here more often then not. If we raise with AQ and hit tp you bet it relentlessly, especially at a $20 and especially with a loose villain. Checking the the turn for pot control is not a good line given our hand, villains looseness, and sng buy in.
