Hi Guys,

what about this hand?
What would be best on the river?

So on the turn i continue betting, because of having an overpair. => if villain is raising, i`m going to fold.
River is tricky and i`m not sure =>
shoving for value? (against Qx) /all air will fold, every flush will call...
bet fold? => raising will mean villain has the nuts
check fold? => checking will look very weak and vs. a bet i guess i have to fold very often
check call? => difficult as well, which worse hand would villain bet? He has some straights, two pair, flushes in his range....

What about villain? => nothing to say, just 10hands on him so far...

3bet size is a mistake you have UTG limping and MP iso raising and your oop in the SB so as general rule of thumb make it 3x ip and 4x oop for 3betting.In this case 4x .7 = .28 but then im also then adding on another bb for each additional limper and making it .30 total in this case. As played im not sure im in love with the turn bet it completes straights flushes and 2 pair hands and your also behind to sets id likely just check/call turn.

Turns probrably a check but if you were betting the turn for value the river seems brickish, villain shouldnt have many 8x hands on the river. So the question is, can we get worse to call ?

Possible hands that can call river;

KQ,QJ, JJ, and maybe AT,KT, JT.(all suited hands besides possibly KQo)

I would bet smallish on the the river if your targetting this range to get value from, maybe bet 1/3 pot on the river and fold to a raise.

Pre-flop you should 3bet a lot more for value. Around 28c would be fine. I expect the limper will fold almost always after so much action.

This way you can build up the pot a bit more and you have a shot to get the money in on the turn.

As played the turn is a really nasty card for you without room to improve if you are behind. Only against a big fish I would bet again with the intention to shove on a blank river.

In this case you have $1,22 behind on the river. That makes it tough to bet 1/3 (53c) pot and fold to a shove.

Cheers,

PRE-FLOP: As others have said I'm 3-betting about 4x here.

FLOP: 2/3 pot seems good.

TURN: Check-call.

RIVER: Check-fold if there was action on the turn. Check-call a small bet if the turn was checked down. This is probably weak and exploitable on my part, but I don't like any other options.
