1. id go to 700-825 preflop.
2. flop is fine. 3. turn is shocking. Your ebtting less on the turn than the flop. Fire 2/3 pot ish here. 4. Some people check this, some dont. Id bet, and I'd think i was good too. |

I faltered on the turn, he was clicking on the call button too quickly; thought it might be a sign that he already had the nuts, reason why I bet lower on turn & checked the river. I honestly thought he had a set of 8. Seems in these low buy-in tournaments, players don't care as much what hand they play with. |

What's with betting < 25% of the pot on the turn? Ewww...
You asked for this "beat." |

People don't usually call with the nuts quickly. That means "draw" or "semi-strong hand" much, much more often than it means "the nuts."

If you're going to bet $800 on the turn, then check behind
