Turn: ($1.12) 7:d (2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

River: ($1.12) 4:c (2 players)
SB bets $0.75, Hero calls $0.75.

Final Pot: $2.62.
Results follow:

Hero shows a straight, nine high(5:c 8:c).
SB shows a full-house, sevens full of fours(7:s 4:s).

SB wins with a full-house, sevens full of fours(7:s 4:s).

I guess I lost the minimum here? Still, betting turn seems better in face of various draws.

Hi,
I don't play 6max but I think anyway that check on the turn is terrible. The board is paired with FD and you still have a valuebet here so you bet both for value and protection. Each spade, 6,7 and 9 will be very bad for you. As played this guy on SB looks like a fish (he minraised preflop with a limper in) so I would think about valueraise on the river. If he is a fish indeed I think you will get a call from each 7, TT+,Q9+. If he's not a fish he doesn't have any combo in his range that will crush you (I guess hands like 76 or T8 are not common for isoraise range OOP on short-handed but if I'm wrong, sorry then).

Nice hand, bad luck! There were only 4 combos that got you beat here (74,76,77,97) and on the flop you still had the nuts. That he calls your raise was a surprise to me, since it was 5x his bet size and he only had a mid pair and a flush draw. Pretty lose table, even for 6-handed...

As played - on the turn you have to bet. Isolate against the flush draw.
