I pretty much play the tight, agressive game. I seem to do better in SnG's than ring games. Here is a prefect example of why...

Not on that flop.


Why only the min-raise pre-flop? A bigger raise there may have saved your stack.

Heh I just posted a similar story in another thread where my KK lost to 9-J making a straight on the turn after calling a 5xBB raise and a pot bet after the flop.

thats poker I guess.
