His turn raise was really scary, but we have to call 2 pair here.
I dont know about river, but don't see many value hands in villains range besides 33(1combo) 88 (1combo) A3s maybe (2combos) 45s(4combos)
on the other hand, there are also very few bluff hands, so folding here can be an option... hmmm :f_mad:

You know what, I am stumped by this hand. Folding turn seems good but weak but what bluffs does he have but it's COvBB and oh no I've gone cross-eyed. I'm just commenting and waiting for someone better to post something so I can learn a bit.

Turn call or shove both fine. River i would call most cards maybe not when heart comes or 4;5.
3 and 2 are best river cards there. 45s not in range for bluffing.
Good bluffing hands for his range A2,A4,A5;44;55;87s;89s obv not all hands but depends about guy. U need to have clear read that guy never bluffs to fold this river.

I agree, you can't really fold. 3:d is a great river card reducing his value combos, and with A8 we also block more sets. It's between late positions, this is one of your best bluffcatchers, and he doesn't seem like a nit on that 1.7k sample. I guess people just don't bluff / barrel away on Ace high boards as much, but I don't see how we could fold this. Even if we are heavily overfolding, we should call this combo.
