Not what I wanted to see on the river. I want to fold, but would like to hear what you think.

Fold, such an easy decision...!

yup i would lay the hand down on the river unless i have a history with the opponent and he likes to float with overcards on the flop - then i would call his river bet but otherwise fold. Such a terrible card to fall.

I think this is a case of opponent dependent. Does he bluff? Does he vb often? etc...

With less info on him, I think folding is a safe choice.

fold pre imo. I know BB is a 32/4, but like it's 54o which means were literally always going to be crushed lol.


As played, fold river easily.

Lol fair enough. I typically do fold there. I think I seen his fold to flop cbet was high, but missed how small the sample was. That's something I have to remind myself a lot before deciding to take an action based on stats. How big is the sample?

I agree with this being a pretty easy fold, but at the time it felt tougher. Thanks for the replies. He showed the case 5 after I folded. I'm guessing I was outkicked or he filled up.

This is just NL10, so fold more and call less.
