$Freeroll NLHE MTT: $ : call or fold river?

what do yall think of my cbet on this board. what would you have done on the river?
villain had a vpip of 65.a pfr of 6. and AF of 1.0

I would have just called donk bet from the villain for pot control. You totally overplayed your hand by raising. On this board, you are likely to get calls from king and maybe nine, there is nothing to draw to, really. So basically you are turning a hand which has some showdown value into a bluff, which is unnecessary imho.

Also, I think that on micro stakes, when players donk bet, they often have it (at least from my observations). Passive player stats makes this even more probable I guess.

when you say i overplayed my hand are you reffering to my preflop raise or the continuation bet?

I mean your flop re raise. Because technically it was not cbet, this was re-raise of a donk bet Donk bet made by villain was small and weird, but it was still a bet.

O YA! i completely forgot about that i remember what i was thinking now. it seemed more like he just didnt want me to bet. would that be considered a blocker bet?

Hard to say, on micro stakes I rather see this more when people have a hand and seem like don't want to scare villain. I don't think that players on micro stakes put too much thoughts into such play. Anyway, in that spot I would call for pot control.

There is an interesting hand between Daniel Negreanu and Doug Polk, where Polk leads the turn with 99 on 262A board with ~1/10 pot bet size. He analysed this hand later and I think that he said that he agrees that the bet was too small and he should have bet a bit more, but that he did it to not make it easy to value bet on later street as far as I remember.

Sadly, I think that this analysis is not on his channel anymore, but there is this hand on the youtube:

3rd pair vs losly opp its check/call and check/fold imho.

River is a fold. AF is not high enough to be calling.

The earlier streets I play same maybe even raise more preflop, Cbet is appropriate due to high VPIP. If turn was above a 9 you can consider double barreling and turning your hand into a bluff you are beat more often than not with that flop call only draws out there QJ & Q10.
