Final Pot: t2070


----------

Was this a straight-forward play in the early stages of the final table? I figure my implied odds if I hit are enough to justify the semi-bluff. How about leading out on the turn? At the time, I liked the bet amount, but now I'm not so sure.

Thanks.

I dont like the raise into a better and a caller there, i think you are looking at at least 1 king, but i guess you mixed up your play and concealed your hand. You underbet the turn and river, they look like they are getting stubborn so charge them a little more. nice hand though

I like the semi-bluff if your image has been tight as that should signal a K to the other players.

Once the club hits on the turn, I would have bet more as the Ac might be out there and you want to make him pay. I think that I would have gone to 1/2 pot on the river to try to get a few more chips.

Nice Hand

I had been a rock aside from showing down a JJ in a small-ish pot. That's actually another hand I may post about later.

Thanks for the feedback folks.

Given your pre-flop limp the flop raise seems pretty transparently a semi-bluff to either the flush or straight and I'm surprised you got as much action as you did. I might have checked the turn, but your play turned out better.

Well done.
