Just qualified for the $27 knockout tourney just now, in a $11 super turbo. Not sure whether to play it just yet or not though... I took out 1 player, and when we got HU we both knew we had qualified so he called my all in with 2T against my K5 and won 
Meh, might play it if I've done enough work in the next two hours.

Not sure if I should be annoyed about that or not.
I couldn't fold after raising and I'm always shoving that flop after he raised it. Maybe I shouldn't have raised preflop in the first place.

Min-raise or any variant is the minimum amount legally allowed to raise.
3bet is the third bet in the pot (Blinds (1), Raise (2) 3bet (3) 4bet (4) etc)
In this case I'd say he min-3bet you.

The problem is you have a very weak hand and the stacks aren't huge. I don't think there's anything wrong with raising or folding, but once he 3bets you I think you have to give it up as you aren't going to hit many flops where you know you are good, and 400 chips is still almost 10% of your stack. Others here are much better at HU though so they may have better advice.

I shouldn't be playing this tournament. I'm playing awfully at the moment, not concentrating on it

In a 'LOLDONKAMENT' I would err on the side of playing these hands fast, so I'd agree, but I'd probably click the button with a bit of a whince if that hhelps...

I was playing the Ante Up SCOOP tournament at the same time and have almost reached the money
It's such a weird game though as the blinds stay at 5/5 the whole time and the antes go up really quick. Basically at the moment an unraised pot is almost 2500 and it is 5 to call yet loads of people are still folding pre flop despite 500-1 odds
Edit: I'm 291/1875 now (top 1800 cash) after this hand:
