My hand comes KQ of H's in the small blind and naturally, depending on position, I will raise at least 2 1/2 to 3 or bigger. I've got 33,000 to his 25,550. Gentleman in the big blind calls and flop come KQ9, all of D's. I bet the pot size, roughly 3000, and he waits a few moments and smooth calls. Blank for the both of us, 4 of C. I raise half of his stack , in the 9200 range and he waits a few moments and shoves. I'm thinking this over and in earlier hands he had been raising and on showdown he would have the hands that won. I was thinking in those hands he hadn't made any play similar to this. I call with top two pair and he shows A of D and a 9 of S and the river comes a 4 of D. Was this a bad call or a good call? Seems hands like this can turn my tourney. Thoughts anyone?
