I like the river check, especially since it looked like Nikos was definitely going to bet the river.

I probably would have done the same to be honest. I hate catching a full house on a poor looking board. Its always so hard to get any action.

I think you played it perfectly.

You won didn't you? And you won with a double-up. Couldn't ask for more!

Just because I won does not make it a good play.

I was second guessing my river check.

I don't think you should be (second guessing that is). They both felt that at the point they had the best hands and you were just lying in wait like a lion. They both put in action, you murdered 'em, and took your spoils.

I probably play this the same way . . . . I'd alternate between checking this river and making a large "pot stealing" type bet to see if someone wants to get cute and come over the top. You're either going to get action or you're not.

The only hand I'm worried about here is T7, maybe TT or 77 (but very unlikely given the action). If these hands are out there, C'est la vie.

i think u played this fine for a tourney hand.. if it was a cash game however, i probably value bet the river, maybe even value bet the turn.
