    $50 SnG on Empire. First hand I make a solid raise to 60 UTG+1 with QQ. Blinds 10/15. Starting chips 1000.

    The 2 players to my immediate left both smooth call and the ass-clown next to act makes a minimum reraise. I call as do the two others.

    Flop is 7 2 3 with 2 hearts. (I don't have one) and I check. Next to act checks and next player bets 350. The player who min raise preflop smooth calls.

    What's my play? I have 895 left.

    Push. I like to stay out of trouble early on in stts however i think you gotta push and if you run into aces or kings then suck it up and move on. 1 of your opponents i.e the min raiser may hav 77 however your either make an incredible laydown or possibly takedown a very nice pot and be sorted for rest of game

    eeek :eek: what to do is right. I guess personally I would push hoping to see A7 or JJ or 1010. But that minimus raiser throws me right of. What happened?

    Push then berate them both, using ass-clown, fuktard and knob-jockey where appropriate.

    I think Id go all in. If hes got AA and flat called the bet on the flop then fair play to him he can have my chips, but I think your ahead here more often than you are behind.

    Yeah that's bascially how I felt about it too. I was pretty sure he'd push with both an oiverpair OR a set here so the only player I really had to worry about was the player who checked behind me on the fop. I pushed behind and he called with KJ of hearts. The player who lead the flop for 350 was obviously a genious and folded and the player who min reraised preflop called with 88 and my overpair mangaged to hold out. Funny thing is if the player who min reraised refllopo had pushed on the flop with his overpair I'd have let the QQ go because of the way most bad players play AA/KK at these tables.
