I have a couple of hands like this today. I think probably it isn't played too badly, really, not sure. Villain is 10/2 rock. The flop is pretty wet so I check. Since he checks behind I bet the turn to try to take down the pot since he's quite nitty. His call at this point should be pretty suspicious I guess. He's probably got the nut flush or better when he raises the river like this. On the other hand I'm already committed so I can never fold here. I'm just unsure about betting the river. Maybe since he's a nit and called the turn I should just check/fold the river here? But at the same time I have a pretty strong hand.

Party, $0.01/$0.02 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 7 Players

Hero (BB): $2.36 (118 bb)
MP1: $0.57 (28.5 bb)
BTN: $2.98 (149 bb)
SB: $2.02 (101 bb)
CO: $2 (100 bb)
MP2: $2.93 (146.5 bb)
MP3: $0.78 (39 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K Q
MP1 calls $0.02, 5 folds, Hero raises to $0.06, MP1 calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.13) 2 8 7 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 checks

Turn: ($0.13) 3 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.08, MP1 calls $0.08

River: ($0.29) 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.28, MP1 raises to $0.43, Hero calls $0.15

Results:

Spoiler

$1.15 pot ($0.05 rake)
Final Board: 2 8 7 3 9
Hero showed K Q and lost (-$0.57 net)
MP1 showed T A and won $1.10 ($0.53 net)

Hello,

Preflop against a 10/2 player I think we can just check here considering that we are OOP and such a low SPR.
Also his limping range is not weak so I think checking and seeing the flop is a good option.

On the flop checking is good. Not really the best flop so there's nothing bad in giving up.

On the turn I'd only bet if I have noticed that the opponent is tending to fold a lot and be pushed around.

As played on the turn, on the river I'd bet around $0.17.
When he shoves we can never fold the second nuts here.

Best,
Plamen
