It's a $2.20 6-max tourney, 30 players remaining out of 900+. Average stack is 48k.

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t500/t1000
(Ante: t100)
5 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: t41238
CO: t46128
Hero: t46565
SB: t18399
BB: t36711

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is Button with A♠ J♥
2 folds, Hero raises to t3000, SB folds, BB calls t2000 (pot was t5000).

Flop: K♣ A♣ 7♠ (t7000, 2 players)
BB bets t1000, Hero raises to t5000, BB raises to t17000, Hero folds.
Uncalled bets: t12000 returned to BB.

Results:
Final pot: t17000

The minbet seemed like a try to get a cheap turn card to me..

Hi plaukas,

I don't like a raise/fold here. We can opt for either a call and raise blank turn (which is what I prefer), or we should raise/shove. Our opponent will very often show up with a draw here, and sometimes a worse ace (which a lot of people would 3bet here still). Realistically you are only behind against a set of 7s and A7 here, as all other better hands 3bet preflop.
