Last night i was playing a coin freeroll on Full Tilt when this hand come. I am on the button with Q J blind were 15/30 no bet before me so i limp the SB fold i stay with the B B.
The flop come K 6 10 rainbow the BB min bet i have a straight draw so i called the turn 3 another min bet i call and the river come with a 9 for my straight the BB bet big so i shoved and he called and show K 10 two pairs that he had on the flop and slow play them.
Usually i an getting caught with slow play or trapping but this time it was my turn.

Thats hand is an example, why one should only try slow playing with a really strong hand. Two pair are not that strong, and can easily been outdrawn. You want your opponent to catch his card, and still be behind, not to outdraw you.

Lol yeah, pretty horrible play on your opponent's part. Horrible is the right word there.
I did a very nice slow play in today's bankrollmob weekly freeroll on partypoker. I was dealt 1010 early position so I raised 2.5x pre flop. BB called my raise but I knew he was tight so he probably had a good hand.
Flop came 1093 with 2 hearts. He checked, I checked, turn was another 9. We both checked again. River comes an A. He checks again, I bet 1800 into 4k pot, he raises to 4k I shove he calls and shows AJ. Pretty bad play on his part on the river but hey Ill take it.

Yes tis was a very good one of your part it was very hard for him to read your hand he probably though that you also had an ace but even so with a J kicker if it had been the case you could have beat him with a Q or K kicker.
