    Default Top set line troubles

    Very early into a $6.60 satelitte. He seems like a loose player from the 10 or so hands I've seen so far. Does his line stink of a flopped flush? How do you play this hand?

    Full Tilt Poker
    No Limit Holdem Tournament
    Blinds: t15/t30
    5 players
    Converter
    Seat 1: muffman1 (2,505)
    Seat 2: hartlis1 (1,650)
    Seat 3: A-Phillips (1,965)
    Seat 5: jcdominatn (1,455)
    Seat 6: matthews41 (1,425)

    Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with 9c 9h
    UTG folds, CO calls t30 (pot was t45), Button calls t30 (pot was t75), Hero calls t15 (pot was t105), BB checks.

    Flop: 2d 9d 4d (t120, 4 players)
    Hero bets t90, BB calls t90 (pot was t210), 2 folds.

    Turn: 5h (t300, 2 players)
    Hero bets t250, BB raises to t500, Hero calls t250 (pot was t1050).

    River: ts (t1300, 2 players)
    Hero checks, BB is all-in t1345, Hero folds.
    Uncalled bets: t1345 returned to BB.

    Results:
    Final pot: t1300

    I don't play at such low limit. My guess is that your hand is good at the river. You should have called.

    I don't usually play SNGs/MTTs anymore Thats why I was playing at "such a low limit"

    If you're going to reply, at least explain why you think I'm good.. saying, you were probably good just doesn't help me improve my play.

    If I made an absolutely retarded river fold, I need to know WHY it was a bad fold so that I don't make them again... follow me?

    Villian can have a made flush, a drawing hand or a lower set, all are possible.

    His play was wierd if he had a flush, he called your flop bet, reraised your turn bet in an amuont you had to call with any decent hand and then betting massively on the river.

    This betting pattern makes little sense. I think I push the turn

    Thanks, TLR, you explain better than I did.
    Like I said, I don't play at such low limits. The betting pattern of Villain makes it very suspicious that he has a flush. It is possible, but very unlikely. That's why I said that I would have called the river.

    Yep, push the turn. If he flopped the flush then hope you fill up on the river.
