    Default Too passive post-flop?

    Second hand of the SnG. I was afraid of a set and didn't want to bust out first hand so I shut down to check-call depending on the bets. An A or J, and I would have been betting big.

    nh well played- he played it terribly passive imo, not you.

    Generally speaking, I find TP to be the most difficult hand to play in Hold'em. Just had this situation: AKo and hit my ace but get raised all-in, what now? The only hand I can beat is a weaker ace or any pair that didn't hit trips. Actually I called and he had AQo. But I'm not sure whether this was good play.
