Hi Everyone!
Pokerstars - $0.5 NL (9-max) SnG - 1st hand

There's full table, omitting not acting players.
Should I push in such case? That's micros and range of limp-call is huge. There could be set or straight with :8x::Tx: of course, but :Jx: or even :9x: or any pocket pair also could call flop. And we try to defend from straight draws... Or should I just control pot and check back?

UTG1: 1500 (75 bb)
MP1: 1500 (75 bb)
Hero (CO): 1500 (75 bb)
BTN: 1500 (75 bb)
SB: 1500 (75 bb)
BB: 1500 (75 bb)

SB posts 10, BB posts 20

Pre Flop: (pot: 30) Hero has K♠:K♦:
UTG1 calls 20, MP1 calls 20. Hero raises to 110, BTN calls 110, SB folds, BB calls 90, UTG1 calls 90 MP1 folds

Flop: (pot: 470) 7♥:J♣:9♦:
BB checks, UTG1 checks, Hero bets 357, BTN folds, BB folds, UTG1 calls 357

Turn: (pot: 1184) 3♠:
UTG1 checks, Hero bets 1033 and is all-in, UTG1 calls 1033

River: (pot: 3250) 8♣:

Spoiler

UTG1 shows T♠:8♠: and wins 3250

Well I raise 5 or even 6 bb pre because they call it anyway. 2/3-3/4 flop to shove turn is std. If someone flopped it so be it. Villains stick money with to much crap in.

Thank you!

That was 5.5 bb. I think my pf and even flop logic is good, but on turn there was possibility to check back - board is well coordinated and opponent called flop - should I? And if so, then check-fold on river? Only because of coordinated board.

In a micro SNG like this I woould play the hand the same. You want to protect your hand with a shove on the turn and there are a lot of river cards that will kill the action or hurt your hand.
