With the buy in of the tournament i would call as you can assume that they are bad enough to shove 3 of a kind or a worse flush. However in general i would bet fold or use your hand to induce a bluff or worse value bet.

3-bet pre. If you wanna get tricky with monsters, do it in bigger buy-ins and crucially in position. Would make it between 3.5x-4x his raise.

On the flop you're already in kind of an awkward position not 3-betting pre. A lead is defendable I guess. You do want to make it bigger if you're gonna bet though.

Call river. He's easily moving in with a worse flush on these stakes, and his full house or quads range isn't that big in terms of combos. Getting 3 to 1 this is a call.

yes, i think you are pot commited however the most important question here is whether to call or fold the hand. villain might have a full house however these all in might be a bluff as well or maybe villain has a set of queens with kq or kj or a smaller flush. given the fact that these is a 0.25 sng i think i would take a shot and call villain shove.

I think that there is no way to fold anymore, eh the call and hope to have the best hand.

Corect, it was my mistake to not 3bet preflop!

To fold on the river have some reasons....i have aprox. 30BB left and the SNG is regular-aka blinds increase at 10 min.

To answer the question specifically you are not pot committed on river you still got 30 BB behind. But I would call river there too.

Some things of your play on the hand I do not like.
The flat OOP preflop - I prefer 3bet
Th donk bet on flop - I prefer check raising/calling
The river bet - I prefer check call


All of the money could have gone in on any street so it is cooler in my view.
