No need to worry about an extended post here. SNG#3
Down to 7. Stack size around 1,450.Blinds at 50/100. A caller and a min raise in front of me. QQ in pocket. I'm all-in and happy to take down a decent pot or go heads-up with a premium hand.
I'm called by min-raiser and resigned to a quick exit when he show pocket Kings. 7th place.
SNG#4
Start off nicely. Take down a decent pot. Then get all in with KK preflop. My opponent shows down a pair of Kings on the river.No not a split pot - quads for yours truly. He called an all in with J-10o. Lolz donkaments.

Ok by now you can guess I lost the pot. But did I play it badly?
kuumies seems a good player. Tight aggressive pre-flop. Neutral-aggressive post flop.
Pre-flop: 88 is tricky hand. Should I just have called? With Kuumies on the button I think there would be a very good chance of facing a raise.
Flop: Other than hitting the set it couldn't get much better. With a check from kuumies a continuation bet is a must.
Facing a min-raise: Ok time to work out his range. Higher pair, - yes. Hitting trips is also a possibility I guess. Flush draw? Possibly but I think he would only call with Aks and possibly AQs. Ak off? Maybe. Taking a stab at the pot, hoping to fold my AK, AQ that missed.
Looking at it now his min-reraise was effectively an all-in. My choice was then all-in or fold. In the end I couldn't fold an overpair.
With the Ac ensuring his entire range hits I of course lost the pot. I guess the decision depends on whether Ako is in his range.
I'll post what he had later. Any comments?

56c? or trip 7's or A7
There - thats narrowed it down :-)
I didn't think he would have called a 3xraise with 56s or A7 even on the button - he was pretty tight. pocket sevens maybe but I dont have a big enough stack to pay off off x8 my raise if he hits his 8-1 trip shot so he would be dependent on reraising my c-bet with a low/mid pair if he missed in which case I'd be correct to go all-in if he would make the same play with 66 for example.
So would you have folded to min-raise?
Yes I would have folded
Deadly calls it right. Yes sober it is an easyish fold. Three pints in me though was enough to tip the balance. Villain showed 10 10 to leave me with two outs.
