[Closed] Playing AA early stages of tounament?

Would you consider this bad play on $11 + 1 SnG Rush tournament, should I have expected him to have it? (I thought he had an Q or other pocket pair).

I don't think you could think he had QQ from his preflop behavior. Seemed like he has AQ or other Qx hand, with A6 or 22 being less probable. And I don't think you could fold to his aggression on the turn. So I guess nothing you could do about this result. Nothing you could have done different.

on flop you should bet a bit more against two players like 2/3rd pot , because you are giving players odds to suchout and same on turn

as played on river , you need to think what he is reraising you with , cant put him only Qs as he would play AQ like that but could easy have a 6 in his hand so maybe just call him instead

players play sets this way on flop , some will bet so not to give way their hand but you got to expect beats are part of everyday poker & As you will often win small & lose big

They were all in on the turn curnow ..

In relation to the hand, it's just a standard bad beat.. Bet size on the flop is too small though!
I'd be betting somewhere in the region of, 320+ on the flop and looking to get it all in against AQ/Qx there if possible, the turn is a disgusting card, because he is rarely raising you here as a bluff, but its hard to find hands that he can play this way..perhaps AQ of some sort of weirdly played flush draw 22, and QQ are the most likely hands, and given that it is a rush tourney though I may be inclined to fold here because people are normally only pedalling the nuts..its a marginal decision between call/fold on the turn, given that I cannot see a hand which he is ever bluffing and the raise on the turn is almost too strong to be AQ.

u should 1/2 potsize bet the flop and get broke

u have a strong hand and on 11$ he will broke with every Q

at all its a setup
