Re: Two consecutive hands in the end of a tourney - opinions please
2nd hand, I think the mistake was pre-flop, by betting 48k and only leaving 28k behind you are screaming "IVE GOT A MONSTER!" - so I've very suprised you got a call.
Secondly, playing with 28k in a 100k odd pot, you don't really have anything to work with. i.e. you couldn't push him off his draw, so his call on the turn was correct. You need to think about where you'll be later in teh hand and try to avoid awkward situations.
As played i think the check on the flop was OK, as he may have bet out there. If he was first to act though I probably wouldn't check behind.
