$5 SnG.

this is the 1st hand i have played in about 30.

the whole table is playing very tight, it has folded round to BB several times in the last few orbits. i thought about fast playing my AA but decided against as the table was playing so tight, i thought that the way i played was my best chance to get any money into the pot.

MP2 has just lost a big pot with a straight vs a flush.

did i get the bet size wrong as i have less than the pot size in my stack if he calls, but if i am ahead i want a call?

Hero bets t815 (All-In), MP2 calls t815.

River: (t2880) (2 players, 1 all-in)

that doesn't look like you slow played it at all. I personally wuld have checked on the flop and seen his move.

Why not post the result?

Onto the hand:
I don't really like leaving myself with such a small stack here. Are you going to fold to a flop push heads up? You're betting any turn(besides a Q) if he calls so you may as well push it in. I might make it 300~ preflop, but your move was fine.

I dunno really. This is an oogly hand.

what i meant was i was thinking of making a big overbet pre flop,

there has been some discussion about stretegies which involve all-in moves pre flop, i felt that there was almost 0% chance of getting a call so i played pre flop in a routine manner.

If you were talking about a bigger preflop bet, I would like it.

By betting 400 on the flop you are already pot committed, so you might aswell go all in on the flop.

pf raise is weak. put in an extra 50 to your routine raise when person(s) limp. Secondly I chek the flop. If he bets I Rer raise him and pray he calls with his Q. If he cheks, then I might bet turn. To me AA dosnt mean much in SNGs. You pushed on the turn with vary little info. The AA is good most times, but in SNGs its in your favor to play alot of strong situations weak, b/c you really wann aknow that they are weak when you bet. Cheking would tell you mor on the flop then betting at a 1-5$ level sng.
