Starting stack 7000, Blinds 50/100. 30 minutes in, two or three players flatted, i have AhKh in the big blind, I raise to 500, one caller. Flop comes King 10 x with two clubs. I check. He bets 700, I call. Turn is offsuit lowish card, I check, he checks back. River is an ace of clubs, I bet 1000, he shoves, I call, he turns over J6 of clubs.
The more I think about this hand the more I feel like I played it terribly. I should have check raised the flop (but the starting stack was so small this would have cost me about half my stack, so I just played it slow). Had I raised he could have jammed and the outcome would have been the same, I just don’t know enough about him to know how he plays.
The turn check and then river shove should’ve given me the idea that he had clubs, but with the ace and king of clubs on board it’s hard to imagine what clubs he might be calling a 5x raise with on the flop. J10? QJ? Maybe, but he probably would be raising those preflop. Biggest issue was really that if I put him on a flush and folded I’d be short stacked already and top 2 is a decent hand to get it in on.
Am I a total fish, how would you have played this?
