SB Hand... think I played poorly...
15/30 Hand at my home casino...
Hero has K-9 of clubs in SB... 3 limpers to me and I complete...
Flop comes down K-J-9 with the J of clubs... I bet out and lose BB and early limper... then I am raised by a limper with one limper behind... lose the limper... back to me and I call planning on check raising the turn... I think I have best hand and player has K-10 or K-8s... something with a top pair element and a straight draw... My logic being that if he flopped the nuts he would wait for the turn to put raise in... since he knows I play aggressive and will more then likely (ie 75% of time) bet the turn...
Turn is the 8 of clubs... I check now worried somewhat that his most likely holding of K-10 just got there if he doesnt hold K-J... he bets and I inexplicably as a reaction check raise...
Was this a good checkraise or a bad check raise... should I have led the turn or just check called... (an additional note... villian is a player who has just pissed off 5-600 and I sort of put bad beat on earlier in a hand where I had K-10s and flopped top pair and came runner-runner for a straight... and he didn't show hand) I think that he could be over playing his hand against mine...
As it turns out he 3 bets turn and I call and make flush on end for another C/R... He proceeds to walk out of room mumbling to himself.. after pissing off 800 in chips...
In addition, I thought I would provide a quick analysis of the room I play in... The room is usually very tight and only on weekends do we get more then one 15/30 going... and that is the highest limit in the room... with exception of 20/40 HO on Fridays... So as a result I play with a lot of the same players and varying my play is a very important element of my profitability...
All comments welcome... I think I played hand poorly... specifically on the turn... but maybe also on the flop... and got lucky...
