Default 5-4, 5-3 or 4-3 .......................

When checked to on the end by an opponant you are sure is on a draw you should not bet. Betting the river in this spot will NOT make you money. If he is on the draw he will not call you. I don't care if KGB had top two or a set, he should not have bet $100 much less his whole stack. Therefore the only hands I can put KGB on to justify his play are 54, 53, or 43. If he has one of these holdings he will lose if he checks behind Damon. Remember he put him on a draw, probably a hand with an 8 or 9 in it. Since Mike MISSED he won't call a bet. Therefore by betting it all he wants Mike to fold. This is why it is important to put an opponant on a range of hands then narrow it down as the hand progresses. His locked first read cost him his whole stack.
