$2 NL HE STT Turbo: Good laydown? TPTK with 3 suits on flop early on
Is it okay to play this hand in this scenario? I try to be extremely tight in the early-goings of a sng, but I felt like I should play ATo in the button with action folding around to me. BB calls my 3BB bet, and then donk-bet shoves the flop with 3 suits. I hit TPTK, and I thought for a while before laying this down. My first instinct was that he had the A or K of diamonds, but then I started to think his range could be much wider. Could have hit a set and been scared by the diamonds, could have had JJ, or could have had a made flush with low cards and been scared that I had a single high diamond card. Either way, because it was so early and because villains range was so wide, I decided to fold- even if he was on a draw, I would lose 1/3 times and felt it wasn't worth the risk.
