Danger of checking hands down
Here is a hand that I played today that perplexed me and ended up costing me.
I am two off the button with K Flop comes Q Big blind checks, limper checks, and I bet $36, not wanting to give any cheap draws. BB folds and limper calls. Pot at $110. At this point, I am a little confused...He didnt reraise so he either has a drawing hand or is slowplaying trips or two overs. I put him on Ax Turn comes 7 I hate that card, cause in my opinion he just hit the nut flush. He checks, and I check behind him thinking he is hoping to check raise. River is 3 Another terrible card, cause even if I was off on my read and he had any club, I lose. He checks again and I just check it down. He turns over 6 Im curious as to where you think I made my mistake. He played his hand on the flop like he was fishing for the nut flush, so thats why I put him on Axs. Then, when the turn hit, I figured he was hoping to check raise me, probably putting me on a pair of queens. Then, when the river put that 4th spade on the board, I figured I was drawing dead for sure and any bet I put out there would just sweeten the pot. Thoughts? |
