PokerStars - $0.05 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 108.6 BB (VPIP: 20.83, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 18.18, Hands: 26)
Hero (SB): 99 BB
BB: 256 BB (VPIP: 37.50, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 9)
UTG: 121.6 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 22.22, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 29)
MP: 209 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 8)
CO: 293.4 BB (VPIP: 4.76, PFR: 4.76, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 43)

Hero posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has A♠ K♠

fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (6 BB, 2 players) J♥ T♦ 6♥
Hero bets 2.8 BB, BB calls 2.8 BB

Turn: (11.6 BB, 2 players) 5♣
Hero bets 5.2 BB, BB calls 5.2 BB

River: (22 BB, 2 players) 6♠
Hero checks, BB bets 10.6 BB,

Spoiler

Hero calls 10.6 BB

BB shows 8♦ Q♣ (One Pair, Sixes)
(Pre 32%, Flop 26%, Turn 16%)
Hero shows A♠ K♠ (One Pair, Sixes)
(Pre 68%, Flop 74%, Turn 84%)
Hero wins 41.4 BB

Can I justify a hero call here in a blind battle?

Against a fish I don’t think he would change his hand in to a bluff on the river and I would fold here.

Also, I would bet every street higher with at least half pot. Otherwise he would never fold on a draw heavy board like this.

Cheers,

Hey SDK,
so would you bet river too? I would definitely bet flop and turn bigger. OTR I would be thinking about checking or betting smaller.
Thanks.

Hello.
For me its fold OTR. Also if you wanna bet OTT, bet bigger.

Easy fold OTR. I would consider about check/call OTF or bet just 1/3 of the pot. The reasons are: we usually haven't so much FE OTF and he should bet 100% if we would check and also we have a showdown value. Or 1/3 of the pot, because most of the time we will continue with betting OTT, so I would bet 1/3 OTF and around 3/4 OTT (can be also bigger).

Only if you have good reads on him you could bluff him of the hand, but against a fishy looking player this is for me an easy check/fold spot.

Why do you think that he looks like a fishy player? We have only 9 hands on him, it isn't enough to mark him as a fish.

In 10 hands he has only limped or called when he was in the hand pre-flop and that looks like a weak player.

This is an easy fold on the river. I am not betting the turn too. If we bet the turn, we should bet river too.

He could call preflop 10 hands, it is possible and don't have to be a fish, after this hand I would mark him as a fish (because of spoiler).
