fold, fold, BTN raises to 191, SB calls 161, Hero calls 131 - 3-bet, make him pay to play position.

SB checks, Hero bets 359, BTN calls 359, fold - IMO, If you feel you want to bet this flop,Your bet was too big for that board, 1/2 pot is good, and a check would have been fine since you're out of position.

Turn: (1,316, 2 players) 7<font color='red'>♦</font>
Hero bets 1,422 and is all-in, BTN calls 1,352 and is all-in - I'm never pushing my stack with only top pair, especially on a board like that.

River: (4,020, 2 players) 8<font color='black'>♠</font>

BTN shows T<font color='black'>♣</font> K<font color='black'>♣</font> (Straight, King High)

Hero shows A<font color='black'>♠</font> Q<font color='black'>♠</font> (One Pair, Queens)

BTN wins 4,020
And that's my opinion.:)

For sure 3 bet pre. Flop bet seems ok to me, but no reason to shove turn. You're likely only called by better, so try to get to showdown cheap.

Yeah, you are right. The main mistake was that call PF. But on flop and turn i putted him on flush draw or open-ended str8 draw, so my bets were like a cry, "keep your dirty hands from pot, you fish!" :D And on the turn i shoved because the pot was already same big as my own stack and those was a turbo sng. So i tried to cut him off, from fishing with draw hands till river. And i didn't want to face a bet from him on dangerous river card, which could finish flush or str8 draw hands. Unfortunately i was running into nuts at the flop already.
But as i said my high aggression was based on defending against possible draw hands. Well maybe i have to learn controlling pot skills as well..

Thank you for opinion. But you know, usually i do the same way, but in the pot with two opponents on such a wet flop, considering it's micro limit SNG i decided to bet it more, trying to force folding draw hands, as i was on a worst position.

3B pre flop. He he 4 bets you have a decision.

Flop, OOP just check and try to get a free card, if he hit any of that board or has a draw one of the App is likely calling.
On his flop call, you are now in a guessing game of whether or not your ahead. The 7d doesn't change anything,so your shove is a just a hopeful one that he has a str8 draw, a flush draw, a pair... but so many hands have you beat...

Don't see any reason to bloat the pot post flop out of position with you leading flop... try to get to cheap show down with your stack.. you have plenty of chips. 3B pre is best. check flop in this case though. And don't stack off with TPTK on a wet board.
