2nlz top pair weak kicker on lowish board
SB: $2.00
BB: $2.00
UTG: $2.84 (Hero)
MP: $2.25
CO: $3.11
UTG wins and shows two pair, Nines and Eights.
UTG wins $0.40
Rake is $0.01
Villain is 24/16 over 52 hands.
Flop: I'm not sure of my bet sizing here, but I bet small to hope to keep club/straight draws in. Perhaps I should have bet larger for protection? I figure I'll get raised with any set, and villain could have all sets. Perhaps villain would raise with 65c or two club overs? Villain could also have 87s but I block one of those combos.
Turn: Villain could have floated with 2 overs with a club draw, so I elect to check here.
River: A good card, but my least favorite 9 as it completes the flush draw. I decide to call here, and not raise, because I figure the only hands that will call my raise would be completed flushes, better two pairs, I do decide to call, because two pair has pretty good equity against his range, and I thin it is quite likely he has a king that he checked on the turn.
What do you guys think. What do you think of the flop bet sizing? The turn check back? Was the call on the river good? Should I have bet for value, or should I have respected the completed flush/straight draws?
