Getting Wheeled
 
Haven't been paying as much attention as I should, villian has not gotten out of line, neither have I. The river is tough to bet without an ace, but it's also a good bluff card, though I think a blocker bet gets me no extra equity. There's a good chance that a call-call line has me beat already; but I'm overall just confused. A little psychological question at the end.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 3 handed) converter

Hero ($226)
Button ($274.90)
SB ($162.50)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#CC3333">Button raises to $4</font>, SB (poster) calls $3, Hero calls $2.

Flop: ($12) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $9</font>, Button calls $9, SB folds.

Turn: ($30) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $20</font>, Button calls $20.

River: ($70) 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets $69</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $139

After the hand the dialogue went like this. Note: I usually never chat, but was a little ticked off after this hand and wanted to feel better.

Me - I think you wheeled me there
Villian - What's a wheel?

What's your take on this, and of course, the entire hand.

"wheel" is I believe an american phrase. When I first started I never knew this

Tough one. Being 3handed his range can be so wide. You say he has not gotten out of line - I hate it but probably have to go with this read and fold.

Not sure about the merits of a blocking bet here.
Interesting hand... would like to see more comments.
