40+4 tourny. level 2, blinds=10/20. 7 handed.
villian has approximately 1300 chips.
i have approximately 2800 chips.
villain is strong player. tricky/aggressive when it counts, but smart enough to be quite tight-passive this early. most of the other players in this game are not very strong.
4 limpers including villain on the button.
hero completes in SB with A /images/graemlins/diamond.gifT /images/graemlins/diamond.gif. BB checks
flop comes: A /images/graemlins/spade.gif T /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/club.gif (pot=120)
hero bets 140. folded to villain, who calls.
turn: Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif (pot=400)
hero bets 340. villian calls.
river: J /images/graemlins/spade.gif (pot=1080)...villain has 730 left
hero curses his situation, and pushes, seeing no better option...hoping that villain has A5 suited or AT for a split pot.
who does this differently on any street?
perhaps the J on the river was my friend? might he have checked behind on the river had i checked? i did not fear a straight, but was very worried that the villain had made a bigger aces up or was perhaps slowplaying a set.
