Hello. I want to ask a question if i played this correctly.
  • Game is Tournament Level IV (30/60).
  • 2 folds.
  • Whanfox (BTN) raises to 138.
  • TFIF (SB) calls 108.
  • I am BB with Q♦ 6♦. I call 78.

Flop comes Q♠ A♠ 9♦ (Pot: 414) SB checks. I check. BTN bets 141. SB folds. I call 141.

Turn comes K♠ (Pot: 696) I check. BTN checks.

River comes 9♠ (Pot: 696) I check. BTN checks.

Showdown I show Q♦ 6♦ (Two Pair, Queens and Nines). BTN mucks J♣ 4♥. I win the pot (696).

I think you can bet some small amount on the river but otherwise looks ok to me.

Yes, I kept thinking if I would have given a small raise on the turn or river, it would have been more advantageous.

These moves do leave you open to getting raised and being put in a hard spot. Playing passive on this board is probably the best way.

a small bet would act like a blocker also just in case he is legit.
