    Preflop seems OK... but I prefer to limp those hands early in an MTT. I play any PP but AA KK and QQ as I would play 22+. Hit the flop or fold. Of course I play make moves with over pairs.

    Flop: I would have bet bigger. You will chase over cards that way, and force a 4 to tell you he have it.

    Turn: I Dont raise here he simply have no chances to put you on a 9 + you have position on him on the river, and he will lead this last street 85% of the time. You have been realy lucky to be HU VS a complete idiot. I want to keep a 6, KJ, KQ, AT or QJ with me here. Notes: I know a lot of poeple will disagree with my call here

    KJ

    good raise preflop.

    on the flop you play poorly however. you should bet about 180 on the flop. Lets just say you missclicked on accident. When he raises, this is you oppretunity to re-raise. So he makes it 120 (meaning he saying "i have ace high") so make it about t500.

    Turn = you win, play slow/ fast/ whatever gets you chips.

    Why 180 (is there some theory I don't know?)?

    Why does it say Ace high? Because he doesn't go AI? I guess, I need more analysis (yes I am a noob/fish/donk)

    When you bet, you have to bet it a decent % of the pot for 2 reasons. Cut your opponents odds to call with a draw and to build the pot.

    Also, you want to be able to get a rid of callers when your on a semi bluff.

    because on the flop, the pot is about 180. so b/c your hand is vulnerable to any two cards higher than 9, you must bet an amount which gives poor odds to your opponent.

    also, through experience @ low SNGs, a weak re-raise, signals that he has ace high. from the showdown I know im wrong.

    I would have bet 150 on the flop. If he raised, I would have reraised the size of the pot.

    On the turn, I would have flat called (if he was still leading lol) or if I had the lead I would bet half the pot.

    On the river I would have done the same, except that I would try and push if he raised me or bet.

    I would have minraised the turn, he's almost certain to call, and its almost certain your ahead.

    You then get to raise/reraise him on the river.
    I also would have reraised him on the flop most likely.

    Your opponent is a moron, his top pair is so vulnerable, plus he called a 3bb preflop raise with 62. ( BUT THEY WERE SUITED ).
    lol
    A good education is expensive but ignorance costs more.
