Hey,

I'm not really sure what the best sizing on the River is. In hindsight I think I would bet something like 1/3. OTF I bet pot because he folds anything but an ace here. On the river I thought in that moment, that he may donk his FH and ch/c his trips, so I did a 1/2 bet. Not really sure though, what do you think?

Hi,

i agree with a slightly smaller bet to induce calls not only from flushes, but also from Axxx that might just muck if you make it 1/2 pot.

I would bet smaller otf still. Maybe he decides to bluff raise or value raise AQxx allowing us to happily jam the flop.

Regards,

Hey,

he is a very straight-foward player with only 5% ch/r. I also have a credible note that he folds paired boards to a 1/2 potsize cbet, so I decided to pot it.

If this player would ch/r me I would be very scared and don't think that I should stack off, even if it sounds very weak, does it?

Hi,

with the read is fine then :). Well if you are sure he doesn't c/r AQxx here, then folding is probably best, no matter how weak it looks. While it may appear you are being exploited for making a "weak" fold, it is in fact you who are exploiting your opponent that you have a good read on.
