Another Bone Head Play

[bruce]

30-60 holdem, game is somewhat tighter than normal, but still a decent game. I open raise from the cutoff with
T7c. I felt like there was a reasonable chance I would be
able to steal the blinds. Button folds and a somewhat tricky, but loose player makes it three bets from the small blind. Big blind folds.

Flop Kc Ts 4h

Opponent checks much to my surprise and I bet and he calls.

Turn Kc Ts 4h 2d

He checks and I bet. While waiting for the turn card I had pretty much decided that if he were to check I would bet and if raised I would fold. He immeadiately calls.


River is an Ace.

He checks and I check. This is where I blew it. When he
called on the turn I thought he had something like pocket Jacks or Queens. With my river check it is now wirtually
impossible for me to win unless he has something like pocket
Eights or Nines and a bet by me is mandatory.

He has pocket Queens and I lose.

Comments appreciated.
