Checking BB I hit three of a kind on the river, but was getting raised by SB whom it turns out was chasing the flush. I let him bet into me thinking I could gain more chips if he kept betting into me, but then faced the conundrum of folding or not when the final heart was shown on the river. I didn't fold, it was the wrong call.
We both had almost the same amount of chips and I was eliminated 17th when 1-10 won the same ticket. I didn't have enough chips to be safe yet, winning this hand would have allowed me to play very safe until the end of the tournament. How should I have played it differently?
