#MaltaHand1 #RoadtoMaltaHand I'm playing an invitational televised tournament. The blinds are 5,000/10,000. I'm in the Big Blind with 900,000 chips. Everyone folds until a player in middle position, with 1,000,000 chips, who limps in. The rest of the table folds. You check. The flop reveals Q♠5♠4♣ i check this flop i like to see what my opponent chooses to do now , whether he will try raise now an steal it or if he will check back an also to see how he reacts an also best to keep it low ball style here against such a big stack an try avoid building a big pot until we have improved to trips or two pair at least we have some showdown value so best trying to get another free card by checking an hoping our opponent does the same . the board is also so wet that so many draw hands will continue an call an in my expierence it takes more than one c-bet on a flop to chase away a limper , an we defo dont want into a leveling war with a guy with a mill ball stack .
