This seems to keep happening to me, since I don't play a ton of NL I can't decide if I'm overplaying TPTK on scary boards.
B&M $30 rebuy tournament, pays top 4, 2 full tables left, Blinds 100/200, I have about T3000. Rebuy period has been over for a while. Villan has just been moved to my table so I have no read, he has me slightly covered.
Villan limps, I pick up A /images/graemlins/spade.gifK/images/graemlins/diamond.gif and make it T600. Everyone folds including the blinds, Villan calls.
Flop comes K/images/graemlins/heart.gifJ/images/graemlins/club.gifJ/images/graemlins/diamond.gif. Villan checks, I bet T1000. Villan thinks for a while and then calls.
Turn is the 8 /images/graemlins/club.gif. There's 2000+ in the pot, I have about T1400 left, and a real bad feeling about this hand. Villan checks, My instincts say check behind, but I don't want to check and risk getting drawn out on by something like Q/images/graemlins/club.gifT/images/graemlins/club.gifor KQ, plus I am likely to face a big river bet after showing weakness. If he puts me all in on the river I'm getting almost 3:1 and it's going to be a really tough decision.
So, I bet all-in, he thinks for a little bit and calls, shows QJ. I guess he was worried I had AJ.
Can I file this as a bad beat story, or is there a point I can get away from this one?
