pre/flop/turn all fine. River is a bet/fold. But make it much more, like 320-340
chenny, what hands do you think call a "large" river bet?
I agree on bet/folding, but without history I put him most likely on pocket pairs (maybe eventually big ones as well, if he wants to keep your whole range on the hand and isn't afraid of more callers after he acts) and AK when calling pf from that position, and I don't think his medium pairs call a rather big river bet.
Also agree with checking the turn, you rarely get value from worse and if he's drawing, he's drawing thin anyway.
I don't like the turn check, I would bet that blank, I see a vlaue bet and I would call his push, he can easily have worse hands on the turn.
River is so sick, it is nutz or nothing and I don't have any Idea how to find out what it is, the way you played the hand I think I would call this, but taht is a reason, why I am betting the turn, cause if he has me beat I would loose it all anyways.
C/C river is the worst riverline IMHO

I tend to agree with this line, even though it is always difficult to know how to play against regs because he could also be moving you on this kind of board pretty easily. Gosh, just thinking about the river makes my head spin, this is leveling at its bes.
But without specific reads I think I would fold the river as well, his line just doesn't make sense with anything other than jacks.
Actually now that I think about it c/c river isn't that horrible I think. We are obviously making a value bet against hands like KK+ or maybe 99/TT, with which is probably isn't going to call anyway. So value betting the river ist mainly because of KK and AA, but I think villain would bet those hands if we check to him, because he can put us on a hand like AK, TT, 99 as well and might hope to get some extra value.
My my, this is crazy. ![]()
Maybe I am overthinking this hand and playing it straight forward might be the best line after all, but I would like to hear your thoughts on my ideas Unam.
Your thoughts are not bad, the problem I have is, that I don't see him Vbetting against TT, 99 and esp. AK, so I have a hard time seeing him betting often here, and all hands with SD value will likely check behind imho. That is why I am betting. I can't decide who is correct here, but I know, that I am betting.
I think that you are weakening your turn checks too much if you are betting this time.
You can bet bet bet vs an unknown, but i think i`m checking this turn against a reg.
