2 HU $2 + .15 End 1st 10 Hands

This was a nice HU The player I was playing wasn't aggressive so I was able to build a small lead by hand 10 -- 1680 to 1320 and hit a straight, that nicely wasn't obvious & he hit a 2nd pair on the River so he bet me all-in and that was it!

Hand 10. I'm SB w/Qh Jh. I open raise 2 BB (40) and BB calls. Flop 10c Ah 9d. I have an open ended straight draw. BB bets the pot (80) and I call. Turn  3s. No hit. BB checks and I do too. I didn't have to waste any chips to get to look at the River!! River Kh. I hit the straight & I don't see anything on the board that could beat me!! BB bets 240 and I raise to 530. BB goes all-in w/last 960 chips and I call. BB shows Ks 10d, two pair. I win, session over!!

I tend to hate that kind of River as I've been on the other side of it all too often. I hit something that makes a big improvement to my hand and I feel I've a good chance of winning, only to find out, in the end, that my opponent also hit on the River with something that beats me!!
