I totally blew this. Would have been my first tournament win. How should I have played this? Probably should have checked the river behind. I decided to bet because I thought he would have a better 6 and fold often enough. When he raised, I felt like the pot was too big to fold or call since I'd be way outchipped and not confident at all heads up. I also convinced myself he could still just have a 6 and think that I was trying to steal the pot, and I didn't think about how much of his stack was in [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
