    Default $16 SNG - What is your move?

    This time I have used the convertor

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG+1 (t1540)
    MP1 (t1350)
    MP2 (t1390)
    MP3 (t1630)
    CO (t1590)
    Hero (t1470)
    SB (t1750)
    BB (t1300)
    UTG (t1480)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K.
    1 fold, UTG+1 calls t20, 4 folds, Hero raises to t100, 2 folds, UTG+1 calls t80.

    Flop: (t230) 5, 4, 2 (2 players)
    UTG+1 bets t200, Hero ????

    What do you do? Re-raise? Call? I put him on high cards or maybe a pair of 5s or 4s. Hopefully not trips.

    I think a re-raise is much better due to the flush draw. I would say an all-in would be nice as this seems like a steal, no?

    Yeah, just shove over as any re-raise big enough to deny him odds to draw commits you to the pot, so just get it in. Plus I agree with you that it looks like a steal, so he might just call with his A5, JT spades or whatever other crap he has.

    just shove
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    i like to reraise to 600-800 here. While this obv. commits you, pushing scares away too many hands that we want to stick around. So many villains at this level dont understand pot commitment. A 3-3.5x reraise will keep the 88-QQ hands in while denying odds for the FD.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    Shoving would be the easiest option but a raise to 600-800 would be better if you trust your post-flop skills.

    What could we put the opponent on? Two spades? Ax for a gutshot? Or A3 for a straight? Unless opp is a complete donk I could see him holding high SC’s.
