I know i could have repopped preflop but if UTG had any kind of big hand he probably would have shoved on me. so i decided i'd set or forget? what am I beating on the turn (besides a bluff?) i'm trying to work on my sng game... i figured it was too early for a marginal hand...?

i think i wasn't paying enough attention at the time though... trying to work on multi tabling too.. hahaha.. I don't think I realised at the time that he min raised..

I 3bet preflop, especially against that min raise. Cold-calling isn't terrible, but you HAVE to bet that flop when it's checked to you. With 2 opponents any Q, K or A could easily put you behind.

yeah... I think I could have been a little scared of monsters under the bed... my line of thought was that if he had QQ+, he would check shove on me. if he had 88 or 99 he set it, and TT was all i was beating on the flop (it got there eventually too). so I could save myself a bet by checking behind and evaluating the turn. I decided I could find a better spot and folded...?

I'd bet the flop, but i think foldings the right move on the turn once you check behind.EDIT: Missed the open ender, not sure now, probably call.

In a $2.25, I think you gotta lead the flop, I prefer to reraise preflop but calling is ok too I think. As played I probably call and watch him flip AJ.
