This was the first hand of the sng. I'm wondering if I should have either bet out or check/raised on the flop. My reasoning for check/calling was that my hand was so strong I could slow play in, especially since the board had very few draws. On the turn I pushed in because the board now had many draws.
Also, was that about the right amount preflop? (I was 6 tabling, and didn't have time to do much math)
The result was a tough beat for the first hand of a tourney
