When our card comes up, it looks so good. But when our card does not show up, it can make us look real bad.

i dont mind the river bet,cant win it by checking.i woulda bet it smaller though,trying to make it look like you really want a call.ez fold pre-flop though imo

u shouldn't have called there... especially is you were a big stack... u could've waited for the rest of the players to take each other out... shouldn't have taken the risk... especially against another big stack player.. u called and ended up losing half of your stack.. anyway better luck next time :D

Sometimes ya just have to give it up...

OOPS, Sounds like the wrong move at the wrong time. Live & learn.

Yeah. I told myself going into the tourney I would play MY game, which is aggressive and willing to put my chips on the line to build a stack. Looking back on it I definitely should have checked the river though.

Cheers!

Because he checked after the river I would have checked also, that way getting a look at his cards without paying for it. If I had the best hand it cost me nothing, if the worst, saved myself a few chips.

You can still beat a few hands: T7, T3, T4, 93, 94, 73

I always say that if you can beat more than 5 hands, it's a snap call.

Ulucky, nothing wrong with floating the flop. Betting the pot on the turn with the intention on taking it down there and then would be my thought...should i get called give it up on the river.

yes Steve, it looks that way, hope he tells you, I'd lay awake at night and think about this one.... sigh
