Default Re: Good Play?

I like it. Plays like this work great against the type of player who frequently min-bets/raises as long as you don't over do it. I also think you can probably get away with a smaller river bet, 800 is basically the same as 1000 here but those extra 200 chips could be important later.

A case can be made for raising the turn, but you don't want to get reraised and have to lay down your hand.

To the poster that wonders why not just bet the flop, thats a fine play as well. I probably bet the flop most of the time when the SB completes then checks the flop, but sometimes I'm happy to check. In this case the Hero was probablt just looking for a chance to fold his 32o and didn't really consider betting until he picked up the draw.
