1) Bet/call. If you don't like calling then check/call.

2) Is bet/fold turn no option for you? It's a blank and a raise would make no sense but with a bet you can protect against a draw (straight- and flushdraws are possible).

1) What could he raise you with that you beat? You do represent a strong hand with the bets on an A high board and 3-bet preflop.

2) I think I like c/c better unless you know that he will call K high.


1) A pocketpair which he tries to represent as an flush. He is nearly a maniac.

2) I still don't like giving him a freecard.

I meant c/c river. I think I would auto-bet/fold this turn almost. But when I look at it I'm not too sure, yes there's a few draws, but he's BB so he could have almost any hand. Pot is very small aswell.


River is a valuebet against this guy. Why do you want to miss this one? He nearly never has a 9 or T but might call a K or Q (very high wts).

Hmm makes sense :)

Would you do the same if the board was QQ22 so any pocket pair would be ahead of you?


Good question. Only if we asume that we played the turn like here (check/check) then Again I see it as a valuebet. If he bets at the turn (what is very likely because he has to see himself being ahead) I like check/call river more.
