    Default QQ with overcard, double flush draw

    I figured I was beat here, I knew villain was on a flush draw but I had him on KsQs or something similar. do you think I played this right; after the call on the flop I figured I had no choice but to check down and let him draw.

    Checking the turn is a reasonable play. Any KX would have to bet there to foil the draw. A draw would probably check behind for the free card. The check on the river is good too as it gives your opp. a chance to bluff. The flush draw to hearts is rather unlikely. Nobody calls a 2/3 pot sized bet to stick around for a backdoor flush unless they have other outs or have connected with at least middle pair. When they do hit that backdoor they usually take some nice money from me.

    sorry my post made no sense since the Ks was on the board.

    Dmitri - Sometimes I'll see a stupid player holding Kx and NOT betting out those draws, so that "bluff" on the river might actually be beating you. Without reads though, I'd call a reasonable bet on the river.

    Even though it worked out I wonder if it was even worth it to represent the king here. With five people the chances of someone having a K seem to be pretty good.
