Villian Stats (VPIP/PFR/AF): 46/19/2

A pleasant problem today our fishy villain has called two full pot bets, but will he call a third?

poker stars, $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 8 Players

SB: $25.65 (102.6 bb)
BB: $25 (100 bb)
UTG+2: $33.33 (133.3 bb)
Hero (MP1): $25.35 (101.4 bb)
MP2: $33.35 (133.4 bb)
MP3: $27.05 (108.2 bb)
CO: $27.37 (109.5 bb)
BTN: $27.56 (110.2 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with J:diamond: J:heart:
UTG+2 folds, Hero raises to $0.75, MP2 calls $0.75, 5 folds

Flop: ($1.85) 4:spade: K:spade: J:spade: (2 players)
Hero bets $1.77, MP2 calls $1.77

Turn: ($5.39) 2:heart: (2 players)
Hero bets $5.15, MP2 calls $5.15

River: ($15.69) K:diamond: (2 players)
Hero??
I'm inclined to bet but also considered a check raise what would you do?

He's calling the whole way. Just get it in... All recreational/fishy type players will call you with their A nut flush and K hands.

Not going all-in would be a sin IMO ... especially seeing our opponent is in love with their hand. If we lose it's just a cooler.



Answer: SHOVE ALL-IN these hands don't come around fast enough and play themselves :)

I agree that if the villain is a recreational player who is kinda passive fish then i don't see a reason for a cheeky check.

Also the river value bet should not be anything less than a pot bet. Just continue the pattern of bet sizing. Since we got just over a pot size bet - shove !! :icon_rabb
