fold, any pp beats you... plus he could have called with a 10 or any suited ace and could have paired up.

Not much you can do here.

what was your reason for betting that much on the flop? you are comitting about 1/5 of your chips on a semibluff, is it worth it? i am not really sure, i'm trying to figure this out myself. it seems everyone does their continuation bets no matter what now that harrington on holdem came out, and i don't think it's always correct.

Your PFR gives away your hand pretty much - you are representing
high pair or AHighcard.

The low flop means you must improve and the big stack will make you pay to see the cards.

Your bet is trying to communicate high pair (which is OK) but your
put a good fraciton of your stack into a semibluff against a much bigger stack. I would have checked in this case.

It looks like neither of you got help with the 7 on the turn and
when the big stack layed down half of your remaining chips on
the river, he was representing his own high pair or maybe a TT hand.
He bet first so you had to fold..

it was checked to him, you wouldnt bet ? but the bet is quite large

he end's up showing 4 high and has nothing.......

only reason why i posted it. I thought i made the right move too....

I made an almost pot sized bet that's all. I know someone's told me with AK and all low cards you probably have the best hand anyways so it's good to bet out.

This actually didn't hurt me in this SNG. I doubled a couple of times and am sitting on 4k right now at the final table.

Personally it loooks like a line for trips. He smooth calls on the flop, then he checks and whiffs into the turn, the bets large on the river. Sound familar? Call that bet on the river is -EV, you shouldn't make the river play in the long-term, as big river bets are seldom Ace high or worse. It may have worked this time, but I believe this is a losing proposition in the long term. Also, maybe not bluffing the big stack on the flop with a small stack and ragged nasty looking flop.
