I played some 1/2 today and two hands came up that I found sort of interesting:

BB: $206
UTG: $614
CO: $299.85
Hero (BTN): $199
SB: $211.75
Pre-Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN)
2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $6</font>, SB calls $5, BB folds
Flop: ($14) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
SB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $9</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to $28</font>, Hero calls $19
Turn: ($70) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $52</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $165 and is All-In</font>
<font color="blue">
Now, this hand would be ultra-standard for me in my usual games. However, I believe I misplayed it vs a 19/15/2.5 200nl regular.

In this hand I think villain recognized me from 2+2 and asked me why I called his raise on the turn (instead of shove/folding). I said that I was relatively WA/WB his range, and that his quick check followed by hesitation on the turn made air pretty likely. He felt that he could be semibluffing there a lot of the time.</font>
What do you guys think?
