BTN: $12.92 (258.4 bb)
SB: $1.61 (32.2 bb)
BB: $6.83 (136.6 bb)
Hero (UTG): $5.81 (116.2 bb)
MP: $7.60 (152 bb)
CO: $10.73 (214.6 bb)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J J
Hero raises to $0.15, MP raises to $0.45, 4 folds, Hero calls $0.30

Flop: ($0.97) 5 9 T (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $0.60, Hero calls $0.60

Turn: ($2.17) K (2 players)
Hero checks, MP checks

River: ($2.17) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $1.30, Hero calls $1.30

Villain is pretty much unknown but I assign for him a 3betting range of AQ+,JJ+ on MP.So on the flop I call his bet cause there a lot of hands in his range that missed the flop.On the turn comes the king of clubs which is a very bad card for so I check with the intension tho fold. He checks behind.The river is a blank and he bets about 2/3 of the pot .I feel that his range is AK,KK+ and AQ some of the times as a bluff so I should fold right??

Hi helliaspapas

As played definitely fold the river imo.

But really you can also just fold preflop even though you are slightly deeper and may think you have odds to set mine.

That's of course without info on villain as is the case here.

Hi helliaspapas

Without info, just fold preflop. AQo+ JJ+ is a optimistic range at this stakes. You have to consider future streets aswell, you have 41% equity against that range you assigned him, but thats only if all the money goes in preflop. Also IMO not a good idea to just call 6bb in this spot with the intention of only hitting a set and folding if not.

I agree to Hashkan. But here is whats interesting: how would the hero should play when he would have raised 1)being in CO; 2)button; 3) SB? Masters, any ideas? :)

Good question. Without info I would definitly call preflop in steal situations and revaluate. But its very hard to play post flop without any info. Lets say the board comes 22368 and you face aggression on every street. What to do? I guess call. Fish dont like to stop betting if they have the lead even with ragged hands.
