Preflop is too big. Anyone who is going to call will call no matter if it's 150 or 80. Given your preflop and 2 calls, your flop has to be bigger, closer to 3/4 pot. As played, the little turn bet you should probably call, and the river you probably should also call given how good your odds are here.
In short, better preflop and flop decisions will put you in an easier spot once the ace hits, because you'll have more chips to work with if you raise less preflop and bet more on the flop.

[dreday]

Yeah, once the ace hit on the turn the pot was pretty big. At that point I really felt my only choices were to go all in or hope for a cheap showdown. I took villans turn bet as maybe a trap bet to juice up the pot, and keep me in the hand. Or maybe i give these guys to much credit.

How would somebody else intrerpret this bet?

Am i letting these guys push me off my hands?

But i cant see calling the river, despite having the odds. Id rather just let it go and try to work my way up, considering it was early in the sng.

I don't think you can check that turn.

? Getting lots of chips in with the best hand preflop is fine imo.

I like the way this hand is played.
