This is the sixth hand of the tourney. So far I've seen the flop once from the SB and check-folded. I've seen Villain open-limp once in middle position with K9s and call down the SB's small bets on the flop, turn, and river and lose to his K7 on a 62K74 board.

UTG+1 (t1240)
MP1 (t1620)
MP2 (t1615)
MP3 (t1470)
CO (t1390)
Hero (Button) (t1460)
SB (t2005)
BB (t1300)
UTG (t1400)

Hero's M: 48.67

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q icon_suit_spade.gif, Q icon_suit_diamond.gif
2 folds, MP1 calls t20, MP2 calls t20, 1 fold, CO calls t20, Hero raises to t120, 1 fold, BB raises to t480, 3 folds, Hero calls t360

Right now of course I'm worried about AA or KK. I think AK is a slight possibility, but JJ is also a contender. This is the first hand that I've shown any strength so I figured he's probably not messing around.

Flop: (t1030) 5 icon_suit_heart.gif, 10 icon_suit_spade.gif, 10 icon_suit_heart.gif (2 players)
BB bets t820 (All-In), Hero...?

Got a weird feeling I was in the same SnG. Anyway I call this everytime unless I know villain is ultra-tight. Too often you'll see 88, 99, JJ even AK.

That's the one. Either way, if villain has AA or KK it's just a cooler. To me this looks like JJ or KK (or another QQ, you never know) more than AA.

Ding ding, we have a winner.

Yeah, ship pre. But fistpump call this

Shove pre.

I doubt jacks, but reraise and all in? Kings. He doesn't want to see an ace hit so he's all in afraid you have AK and he doesn't want to give you a free card to hit the ace.

Since your raise came on the button against limpers, you will see many players 3bet from the blinds with a much wider range than AA/KK. He could put you on a PF steal raise in position.
