i should have known this hand was gonna be trouble... HU 2/4 hand

[bholdr]

Okay... i've taken this guy to the cleaners a couple of times, but he keeps coming back, and appears to have gotten a lot better since i hosed him last time. there is a lot of good 2/4 and 3/6 HU action on absolute lately. this one hurt a little...

The game was going pretty tight. i lost a couple of hands right off the bat where my two pair lost to a higher two pair, and have managed to aggressivly steal my way back even. I won't be playing this player again, since i feel that i ccan no longer beat him badly enough to make it worth my while and overcome the rake (which, in an aggressive HU stud game, takes about $10/half-hour off of the table). we've each been raising every time we have an ace on the door.

anyway:

I don't like that spade, but i'm still sure i'm ahead. i'm thinking to myself 'this is the hand where i break him'... hopefully he thinks i'm going low and is calling with a middle pair or something...

i bet it for value and i lose to a rivered flush. DAMMIT. do you think i shot myself in the foot with my little slowplay on third and fourth? 'never slowplay low rolled trips' has been a rule of mine in hi-lo, but this is HU... thoughts?
