Default Block bet NL100

Hero opens in CO with K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] for 4, SB and BB calls.Villian, BB, has 100 I cover.

Flop comes Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (POT 12)
Checked to me and I make it 10. BB calls.

Turn POT(~30) is an of suit 8 and vilian check calls 20.

River is 10 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and villian pushes, How bad did I do?

Villian is unknown. Hero feels that there is to many draws to check turn.

your turn bet was fine, don't want to let him draw for free, his river bet could be a bluff on the missed flush draw, but it could also be a straight or two pair, etc. I think you have to fold this.

Was your plan to check behind on the river?

Looks well played to me IF you folded on the river. If the river was a blank, you were planning on checking behind right?

I think you played it fine here. Vilian either caught two pair a straight or is bluffing. I would fold to the all in.

I think that you played this hand fine, however I don't see how the 10 helps him. For that 10 to improve his hand to a straight, he would have to be holding K or 9, Either way, would he have called a $20 turn bet on a 4 outer? If he had 9 10, he more than likely would have raised you on the turn. My gut tells me that he was on a flush draw. If he had a set or two pair with 2 suited cards showing on the flop, I think that he would have raised. I'm also assuming that the villian has half of a brain in his head.

Default Part 2.

As someone said, I had a hard time putting him on something that could have been helped by a 10.
How short does he haft to be on river for you to call this, as the hand now was played it was ~65 to win ~135.

I think you played it fine. I think you're beat on the river almost always. If you're getting 4:1 maybe I'd call the river.

that 10 helps him if he had AK...which isn't all that unlikely since it was multiway and he was in the blinds. I'll often just flat call a raise from the blinds with AK not wanting to play a monster pot out of position. My standard move is to either reraise huge, or flat call.

I can't imagine him calling $20 on the turn with only 3 nut outs, unless he's totally clueless (which is possible)
