Hero ???

Some context: I don't have any read on this villain specifically, but I can say that most 2NL ZOOM players tend to be really tight preflop, especially when 3betting and calling a 4bet. I would expect the villain's range to consist roughly of AK, AQ, QQ, JJ, TT with the possibility of things like KQ and AJ if the villain is loose, or AA and KK if the villain loves slow playing. It's possible that the villain is slow playing a hand like trips or a full house here, hence the check/calling on the flop and turn, but it's also possible that my turn check showed weakness and thus induced a bluff. Which is more likely? Should I call or fold?

I would probably just let it go. Most villains at 2NL don't jam river as a bluff, so we're probably just beat. It's hard for him to even show up here with a hand that needs to bluff unless he's very loose.

I would likewise let it go.

He might be bluffing but Im not willing to catch bluff at this time.

Remember, its a zoom.

I thought that by checking the turn, I could have induced a bluff from my opponent (it looks as if I'm C-betting the flop, then giving up). Also, something about the $0.10 re-raise preflop followed by cold-calling a $0.33 re-raise made me think he probably didn't have AK, but I was still worried about hands like QKs.

In the end, I decided I was getting 2:1 odds to call, so I only needed to be right 33% of the time to justify the call. Plus I was curious what he had (I know this is a bad attitude, but it did lean me towards the call button).

Results
Hero calls $1.43
Villain shows Ad Qd
Hero wins pot $4.25
