$2 NL HE STT Turbo: Very first hand- KQs, hit top pair on flop
Was a bit puzzled regarding how to play this. Should I have check-raised flop? Maybe donk-betted? The problem with these options is I wanted to see the turn cheaply, so I check/called for pot control. This looked alot like AK to me. I would have shoved on any spade turn card because it would have given me the extra outs in case he actually did have it, but as it stood I felt there was too much risk in going for it considering this was the very first hand of the sng and I'd have better chances later on. Was pretty tough to lay down though...
