Slowplaying the nut-flush

[cosmo kramer]

Played this hand yesterday and was wondering what others thought.

Great 6-12 game. I'm in the BB with A [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] . CO-1 limps, button limps, SB raises, I call, limpers call. 4 to the flop.

Flop- 7 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] 2 [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] .

SB checks, I check, CO-1 bets, button calls, SB calls, I raise, CO-1 3-bet, we lose all others, it is now heads up.

Turn-Q [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] . I check, call.

River-9 [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] . I check-raise.

I was wondering what others thought about waiting until the river. The reason I am asking is that we went four bets on the river until he realized what I had. Did I just get lucky this time or was this a smart play?
