PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

MP2 (t1400)
Hero (t1490)
CO (t1420)
Button (t1610)
SB (t1380)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1820)
UTG+1 (t1400)
MP1 (t1480)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with , .
2 folds, MP1 calls t20, 1 fold, Hero calls t20, 1 fold, Button calls t20, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t100) , , (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP1 checks, Hero checks, Button checks.

Turn: (t100) (5 players)
SB checks, BB bets t60, MP1 folds, Hero calls t60, Button folds, SB folds.

River: (t220) (2 players)
BB bets t160, Hero raises to t500, BB folds.

Final Pot: t880

Results in white below:
Hero has 4d Ad (high card, ace).
Outcome: Hero wins t880.

This is an 18 player turbo, suited ace in early stages is an instant call, for me at least. Flopped missed me, everyone checked though, and the turn gave me 4 to a nut flush. Villian bet out 60 into a pot that i think was 100, so i know i didn't have the proper odds to be calling (around 2.5-1 ona 4-1 draw), but those are the chances you have to take in these tourneys to make money. Anyways the river wasa complete blank. But tthen something caught my attention - he bet 160 into a 220 pot. That struck me as odd. I thought about it and what good hand would put out a bet that big? I called it as it was and fired out a big reraise and took it down. comments?

A monster that was slowplayed until the river... I've seen it time and time again, check check check check check, big river bet. I think the river raise is hugely spewing in the long run, and expect to be called here 80% of the time with stuff like KX etc...

The turn call is fine if you think you will be able to get paid off for a decent amount when the hits, otherwise it's just spewing.

Strongly disgaree. Esspecially early in a sng. A lot of sng play is focused on preflop rather than postflop and it's all about making correct moves based on icm calculations and such.
