For those who follow the S&G , will notice I just busted from 2 S&G in a row in the first 4 hands .
First one I was 71% to win when we all went allin.
Second one I had A's and got busted by a set of Q
and now, just killing time on a ring game this happened : http://www.pokerhand.org/?451180
Again, I was around 64% went we went allin...
Well, I registered to a $1 mtt that starts in 4 minute.
And fight that tilt a little longer
luckily I play those micro levels and when I lose its not that much in real money - though its a lot for my BR

When you get your bankroll up you'll notice a lot less impact from the micro SNGs. I started with $12 and built mine to over $80 in a couple weeks of playing micro SNGs. So it can be done. Good luck and avoid those suckouts.

You didn't really ask for it, but I'm still gonna say it. Whats up with the mini raise to all in boy? Your "reraise" ended up being a standard raise, in the end he gets 3-1 on the call.
I can live with that though, personal choice I suppose. What really bothers me is you check the flop behind and then call your money off with TPTK... you could have just as easily been behind there. You could be the kind of player who needs a hand to bet but I'd think you'd raise more with a hand your willing to go broke with after hitting a pair when you have dead money sitting there and a limper early.
It's a suckout, pretty standard but I think the focus COULD be on how you played it before that happened.
Or I can just shut up.

well, in my meek defense, I just came from playing few S&G, where if one player is allin, and you don't have a hand its better not to raise the side pot. Only after checking the flop I realize where I'm at.
I always continues bet, especially on a flop like that.
As for the min bet, well, he bet the pot, and I sort of bet the pot. Sure it was the min but when its that size is it still the min?
I'm pretty sure I wanted him to call, I knew I was way ahead..

sit n go and tournys are different then cash games, when a player is all in with 2 other players, your just checking it down with no real hand if no side pot, no need to bluff u end up trying to bluff u have nothing, other guy folds a mid pair you show your bluff, all in guy shows low pocket pair and wins the pot and is still in the tourny/sit n go.
cash games are different cause people can reload at anytime and ur not just trying to eliminate people to make it to the money ur just trying to win as much money as possible
