I’m on the button, final table of an 18 player SNG. And I haven’t played a hand outside the blinds in about 2 rounds. Tonight I’ve had at least four people fill an inside straight draw on me, after getting all the money in with a set, two pair, TPTK, etc. and it just happened again while typing this…….damn.

Any way here’s the play for this hand. Any way you guys (or gals) would play this different?

Raise more preflop and bet more on the flop, you hit about as good as you could have expected with top pair 2nd best kicker and villian could literally be playing any two cards I'd be most worried about a A2 or A3 on that flop because it may take alot to push them out at these levels. The pot was 780 I'd bet between 600-800 really punish anyone for drawing and you could still get a call or push from a middle pair that reads your play as a cbet.

Thanks. I think that not betting enough to punish the draws was one of my problems last night. After placing out of the money in my fifth SNG in a row I called it quits for the night. Today's another day and the donks can't continue to hit miracle cards as a 7:3 dog.
