    Default all in early in sng with 36 off

    It's still pretty early. Based on a few hands earlier, villain seemed like a loose aggressive donkey. Limped a ton of pots, aggressive post flop, willing to take stabs that cut deep into his stack at a midsized pot in dangerous situations.

    But here he's minraising preflop from EP/MP. Would you play this differently? Preflop I was getting 9:1. On the flop, the only preflop minraising hand I can put him on that has me beat is QQ. Anything you do differently here?

    UTG (t1655)
    UTG+1 (t615)
    MP1 (t2305)
    MP2 (t1510)
    CO (t2700)
    Button (t1820)
    SB (t1260)
    Hero (t1635)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with 3, 6.
    2 folds, MP1 raises to t100, 1 fold, CO calls t100, Button calls t100, SB calls t75, Hero calls t50.

    Flop: (t500) 6, 3, Q (5 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets t400, MP1 raises to t800, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero raises to t1535

    I play this the same - get all my chips in and hope and pray that he doesn't have QQ, 66 or 33. If he is a LAGGtard then you can't discount 66 and 33 although they are less likely given you have one of each.

    Yes I insta-excluded 33, 66 from his range for this fact. Holy quick response.

    Looks fine. With bottom two pair you have to play it aggressively on the flop. Too much can go wrong here by playing it slow.
