45 man 3.25 about 30 still in and im in about 4th spot.

no real reads and havent seen much action from villain. should i have folded on the re-raise? he could have very easily had AQ.
Was also very possible he just has the Q or even a FD.

I just shove the flop
my reasoning: SB's SPR is around 3 and you have top pair

Yay!! You folded to the turn shove with top two pair!!! So I get to say instead of . I can't tell you how many time I heard people say 'I just couldn't lay down Top two/set/ass end of the 4 straight' etc.

And what iopq said. Shove the flop.

Yeah I don't have a problem to shoving this flop, and calling this turn would be dreadfull. IMO

OP, tournament HH's go in here, regardless of the buy-in, 1 and 2 table tournaments (sngs) go in the SNG forum.

As for the hand, I stick it in on the flop and say gg if he has AQ.

What is SPR and why are you shoving this flop?? I don't play 3$ buy ins but do ppl call with worse here? Aren't you only getting a call that beats you like....a straight or 2 pair?

By shoving you gain a small pot where if you lead out 3/4 pot you may get flush draws, QJ TQ, AT, AJ to call with bad odds. Then you can figure out what to do on the turn. I don't see how shoving this flop is good.

the pot is not small

You actually provide the best reason to shove -

Then you can figure out what to do on the turn.

this is hard because we don't know what cards to root for, but we may have the best hand already or we may have a bunch of outs.

SPR is stack to pot ratio - it's from professional NLHE - and it this case it just means after the flop raise there is only about one PSB left.
