Message: [QUOTE="camptain, post: 1451345, member: 66873"] If it were a 3 table SNG and you were already in the money, then this is an easy shove. As is, you need a double up to cash. You had your opponent dominated before the flop and he caught that 30% chance and hit his kicker. This is bad luck in my opinion and you can console yourself by realizing he may have called an allin preflop anyway and sucked out and it wouldn't have made any difference how you played it. I think cjatud's advice is solid and it was an unnecessary risk. You have plenty of time to wait for a noncoin flip situation and you don't necessarily have to rely on a big bluff to make the bubble...yet. The less players, the more valuable AQ becomes. If you had waited, who knows maybe two people bust out the following 2 hands and you double your buyin? You leave out a lot of critical information that would better help us guide you in this hand. What are the betting patterns of your remaining opponents? Are they T, L, LA, TA? What hands have they revealed at showdowns? Do they play a lot of pots? Do they frequently try to steal blinds? What is your table image? Do you frequently raise? Will your raises be respected? Have you ever been allin since the tournament started? Where are the players from? Are they from poor countries where if they bust out of a 5 dollar sng they won't eat that day? The stakes at 5.50 (cheeseburger buyin) won't guarantee that all your raises will be respected and you may be looking at a lot of gamblers who buy in and take big risks because losing 5 bucks isn't lifechanging for most people.
