[Closed] All in push correct?

In a hand with the villian who is very LAG and plays all sorts of rags and had made some big bluffs

That's not enouth reason to play KJo in a SnG. Just fold pre.

If villain is really really bad and you think that he'll stack w/ J6 on 4JQ or something, I guess calling preflop is good. Given that assumption you're obv going broke when you hit TP against him. But this is a standard fold preflop almost every time and him appearing to be LAG is not enough.

I take it you say to fold the KJ preflop as it is early stage in tournament? Would revise this statement if it was late stages and I do have position on him.

Also the cards he was holding was J2 when showdown came so my read was spot on...he just got very lucky

Given your read, should you have considered isolating reraising preflop? Force out marginally better hands like A6o and get heads up with a player who you know your range is ahead of.

I said what I said. Your play is alright if you know that villain will also stack with his J2 when he does not hit two pair. But these players are sorta rare and unless you already know him from past SNGs I doubt that you developed sufficient post flop reads on him to justify calling.

Raising is never an option though, you're isolating yourself against stronger hands, your risk/reward ratio is awful and KJo is really much too weak for that matter.
