The River check is to induce a bluff right? I say busted flush draw 9 times out of 10. Raise more pre-flop IMO but apart from that this is exactly how I play this hand... waits around for experienced/competent player to post [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

That's probably exactly how I'd play it - I'd be afraid he is trying to (unwisely) slow-play a set or KQ even. I would put him on a busted flush/straight draw but I'm too cautious this early in the SNG to entice a raise on the river.

Is this what you were thinking? Also, what did he actually have?

Your line is good but your bet sizing is way off imo. PF raise more, 60-70. Flop bet less, 1/2 or 2/3 pot. On the tunr you need to bet more, almost the pot, offer bad odds to what appears to be a draw, you arent folding anyways so commit yourself on the turn and proce out draws. Good river check.

Flop was supposed to be 125, stupid mouse wouldn't get it right so I said f*ck it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Turn I'm trying to give a draw incorrect odds (which I did) while not blowing off weaker hands, (not many out there I cdan think of though... KJ?) and giving myself enough left to fold to a KQ/set push.

If I bet much more on the turn I'm pot commiting myself and giving Villain lovely implied odds if the club hits.

River is automatic, obviously, though less so at the 22s than the 109s.

Thoughts?
