Hi guys,
Just starting out on my SNG journey and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on this hand. Normally I'd be happy enough with how I played it, but since it's on the bubble with two considerably shorter stacks should this be a simple fold and if so at which point in the hand?
Villain had stats of 45% VPIP and 4% PFR from 74 hands, often calling large pre flop bets and all ins with nothing and my read was that he was considerably more aggressive post flop. I thought about the straight possibilities after the turn, but decided that it would be more likely that he had Jx and if so I'd end up with a big chip lead and a good chance of taking down 1st.
Thanks for your advice!
