This hand came up in a 10man SnG ... ideas on how you'd play the flop please.
Every one was playing very tight due to the blinds. I had been stealing the blinds at intervals and didn't feel happy stealing this time for some reason so just called.
Blinds $150 / $300
Button - G The Jester - $1185 (Q2d)
SB - $1160
BB - $1598
UTG - $1836
UTG+1 - $2146
G The Jester - (Qd,2d)
UTG folds, UTG +1 folds , G The Jester calls, SB completes, BB checks
Flop - Td, Qs, 5d
SB Check
BB Check
Next ? .........

10 man SnG hand - how to play the flop?

At this point I would wonder who logged on to my account and decided to limp from the button with Q2 with less than 4bb. Then I would hunt them down and stab them in the mousehand.

At this point you may as well check and hope for a bet on the turn.
All in would also be a decent move if you are feeling more risk averse.
You could already be beat and the turn my bring disaster but all your chips are going in the middle here whatever.

pot is big enough that I would push.
if you are gonna play Q2s what better flop are you hoping for?
222? QQQ?

It is actually worse than that, he is UTG/CO.

If the flop missed everyone I knew that a bet would fold them.
If I raised from the button and anyone had one of the hands above I would have been all in on Q2s (which I didn't want).
Any raise I fold.
I hadn't been hitting any cards.

You've got to eliminate this one from your thinking.

You should probably just push on the flop. You have as many chips left as are in the pot and you are short stacked. The blinds are about to grind you down. You have to pick a spot and go for it. This seems like about as good as you are going to get. You want all in action here and if you bust, oh well, on to the next tourny.

You had a little less than 4 times the big blind. So my thoughts are...
A) Any hand you play is going to be all in unless its AA then possible tiny raise to slow play.
B) Dont flat call with Q2 =/.
C) Since you did, and that flop came, if they both check, i suggest going all in. You had 8 something left, with 900 in the pot. You dont want some random hand like KJ / J8 / J9 catching their straight on the turn or river that isnt a diamond.
