$20 PLO MTT on Paradise, 18 players left, 10 places pay, blinds 100/200. I am in 11th place.
UTG with T14.6K limps, 2nd position with T14.6K limps. I limp in 4th position with KcQcJc9s and T7.8K. I thought about raising pot. Should I have? SB with T8.7K completes and BB with T8.6K checks.
Flop is 8c7c6s. Checked to 2nd position, who bets 400. Everyone calls.
Turn is 2c, giving me a king high flush. Passed to me. I bet pot, 3000. SB calls, everyone else folds.
River is 5d. SB checks. I bet 2200. SB raises 2000 more to 4200, putting me allin. I call.
SB had AcKsTc7d for nut flush.
Should I have checked behind on the river? When SB checked, I assumed my second nuts were good. I was suprised he slow played like this. Should SB have raised to turn or bet the river? Did he have a read that I had a high flush from my turn bet? Maybe he figured I had either a high flush or was bluffing and could extract more playing passively. It seemed like maybe he was overdoing slowplaying the nuts. Was my turn bet of pot correct? I didn't want to make it easy for anyone to draw for a boat.
I realize this a big hand running into a bigger hand, so maybe there isn't a lot I can do. I would be interested in comments on my or villain's play.
The money here is reasonably deep, so I think I'll get better comments here than in the MTT forum.
