90 Man Regular Speed Sng

[RakeMyBlind 0]

OK, so I'm definitely not feeling good about how I played this hand on the turn and river. I bet small so I could get away easily if raised(is this terrible thinking?) and on the river I'm thinking I should have bet but I suck and play too timid at times and pretty much gave up on the hand. Help me figure out the way I should have gone about playing this hand.

I don't know what to do on that turn. Checking seems really exploitable because we're never going to be comfortable calling down two streets, but if we're betting the turn we should have every intention of bet/folding. So I guess I prefer bet/folding.Betting is suicide on the river in my opinion, you're basically hoping he's going to call you with ace high, or you're trying to turn your KK into a bluff.I think overall you played it fine.

Early in a SnG, chips lost are more important than chips won. Checking turn is probably bad as donk4life said. But I'm not sure how much better betting 1/3rd pot is. It's even stranger that he calls this. River check is fine and we're lucky he checked behind, but I don't think I'm too worried if he bets us and we fold even if we're somehow ahead.I guess as it went villain had KQ or A9?

well if we know checking turn is exploitable and villain knows it's exploitable, then it's best to just close your eyes and c/c two streets. If villain knows that you know that checking turn is exploitable, well then you're ****ed.

what buyin is this? i mean a line isn't expliotable unless the villain will exploit you. also, i think you played it fine
