    Default any other way to play this?

    This was quite early in a SNG tournament with a very aggressive player to
    my left. Just wondering if you guys would play this any differently? Or is it
    just one of those unlucky poker hands where the other guy sucks
    out on you and there's nothing you can do? I wanted for him to pay
    off my Queens, but obviously didn't want him to make quads!

    Surely this is not a serious question you just want us to give you symapthy?

    Got money in PF and on flop with best hand and got outdrawn. Well played, bad luck. Next game.

    Don't trap PF in an SnG. Seven-handed, you don't know enough about the players and once you do know the players the blinds are too high. Just raise it to t150. 2/3 the flop and push the turn or you can just push the flop. You lose some value, but you're chipping up and it's still early.

    If you do know someone's gonna raise when you limp or power-check like this clown and want to run an ill-advised trap, execute it right. After he raises, re-pop him to 250 to build the pot to better justify a flop push.
