    I won the hand but I won't post results as what the other player had was a little random.


    The table has been fairly lose so far, there have been some bizarre hands but I've seen some pretty decent hands tabled.


    I felt the King was the worst card in the deck for me to see at this point as it could either scare away lower pairs which didn't put me on the ace, or they had rag hearts and were looking to tempt me into betting again. (I know this is super low level and the range of hands here is high but you never know).


    So real question is should I have bet the river?


    Be as harsh as you like I'm a big boy.

    I think you played this fine besides the bet sizing. If you're going to continuation bet on that flop it needs to be bigger. Either that or just check and peel a free card.

    The turn bet certainly needs to be bigger, especially since you continuation bet the flop, built the pot, and know that your villian may have a draw that hasn't come in yet. Either that or they have a weak 1 pair that might frustrate call you on the turn.

    The river check is fine. You're only getting called/raised by hands that beat you. Anything else is folding unless your opponent floated on you with an Ax and hit the turn as well.

    am i being dumb in not being able to figure out what this hh is from? mtt or sng?

    if its a sng of some sort, im as likely to fold this pf at 10/20 as i am to play pf as u did. as played, id check flop, bet 2/3 - 3/4 pot on turn and check river.
