I have hand here i recently played that i feel was an interesting spot. Its butn vs bb where hero is in the bb. I had some prior history with this opponent but it was a standard 3 bet 5 bet shove spot and it might not pertain too much to this hand but i thought i mention it and as i only had a few hands on them.
I defend my bb with AJ off to a butn steal. I take a xc line on the flop and turn and and decide to go for a half pot donk on the river when the board double pairs and i end up with a full house. Doing it with the hopes of getting called by Ahigh, some pairs that were not counterfeited, 88s full and the odd 5x. Im obv thinking about j8 and 55 here but its highly unlikey given i have the J blocker and its hard to make quads.
The larger sizing on the flop followed by a smaller sizing on the turn caught my attention right away but it wasn't a concern until the river. I began to level myself that they can easily be bluffing in this spot. Then I talked my self out of it quickly and thought about the last hand we played and i figured at these levels players are good enough to try get you off a chop, which made alot of sense to me. I was still ahead of other full houses as well as a few other hands. It was very close for me.
Has anyone ever heard of Zeeboos Therom?
Tell me what you guys think?
Fold, call or should I have xc a bet on the river instead of going for a block bet?
