Sorry, couldn't figure out how to work the hand converter, so here's my best effort to rewrite the hand history:

Blinds are $800/$1600 w/an ante of $125 (this is late on in a tournament)

Hero: 7 7

Preflop:

3 players fold
Opponent1 raises to 5500
Hero calls
4 players fold
Opponent2 calls

Flop:

K 8 K

Opponent2 checks. Opponent1 checks. Hero checks.

Turn:

7

Opponent2 checks, Opponent1 bets $3200, Hero calls, Opponent1 calls

I decided to slow play my boat to try and get action from opponent2 who i didn't think had much of anything at this point.

River:

4

(a blank)

Opponent1 checks, Opponent2 bets $7000.

what do you do here? Opponent1 is short-stacked and opponent2 just barely has me covered.

do you call, do you push it? could you possibly fold a made hand like this?

thoughts anybody?

(mind you there are 60 players left at this point, and i've already finished in the money [this tourney paid 200 places])

Push

Can't really tell position from ur post but ur probably lookin at a king.

i was on the button this hand. sorry for not clarifying that before.

i'd think you have to push - you are in the money and this looks like the perfect time to more than double up. you only have so much time to earn chips.

i dont see much danger cept pocket 8s and KK (which i wouldnt even bother counting)

AK KQ KJs are more likely..

He might have AA, QQ, JJ, TT...all of which gave you a free card. Punish the mistake.

In fact, I am a bit curious why you checked here.

That was a reasonably good flop for you - and in position.

i didnt raise the flop because i felt at this point i was already beat. the check from the preflop raiser seemed suspicious; almost like he was slow playing a set of kings, so i took the free card to see if i could possibly fill up on the turn (which i did).

had i raised the flop, it would have been easier for anybody slowplaying their set of kings (namely the preflop raiser) to re-raise me out of the pot then and there so i gambled and took the free card.

any other thoughts on this hand?

thanks for the replies btw

Well i dont mind your thinking that you were beat.

He did give you a free card and you took it.

btw a set is when the guy has 2 pocket cards and 1 on the board (like A45 when you hold AA).

trips is when the board is K8K and someone has AK.

a set > trips in theory because the set is better concealed, tho in pure hand ranking it is the same.
