I was also giving him free cards but I truthfully always knew I was in front here as he was playing very loose and raising quite alot. His last bet of 1000 had me thinking for a while as I only had 2000 left and I put him on A6 or K6 at this stage as I thought he wouldn't check the flop with a 10 and a flush draw out there. I did eventually call and couldn't beleive it when he flipped over K6. I thought I was Phil Ivey for a few minutes. :lol I went onto win the tourney and was delighted with this play. It may not be the perfect play but it was the perfect play against this opponent as he frequently raised with low pairs etc and I eventually got it all his chips by checking/calling. Any views on this, was it good play or should I have done it differently? :)

Re: Great Call? Looks good to me. The board pairing on the turn is a nice card for you there for sure. He could well just be taking a shot at it with overcards. Its just a case of whether he caught that J on the end or not really so nice call.
