Did I really make the correct moves?

#1 October 21st, 2019, 3:14 AM

I was playing on Nitrogen, a Bitcoin poker site (No complaints so far)
and was playing some 0.05/0.1 mBtc NLH (Which equates to 100NL USD)

I didn't have much info at all on Villan. Probably only 30 hands or so. He seemed like an agro station. We were sitting at a fairly nitty table. Hardly any 3 bets going on. Villan had 210 BBs I had 86. (Villan beat my pocket queens by Turning a set of 10's 4 hands ago for 100 BBs)

But anyway this is what happened.

Hero gets stacked.

I mainly want to know what everyone thinks about the hero fold on the river?

Is that what it takes to be a professional? lol But, where else did I go wrong, if I did? Thoughts?

This is my opinion. Since you say that the opponent was aggressive, it is suspicious that he does not place a continuation bet on the flop. Perhaps a small bet of information would have helped you define their ranges. In the turn, with your projects, I don't see many fold. But on the river the shove was unnecessary, he would only have paid you with hands that dominated you.

Bet the flop bet the turn and if he didn't raise you by this point bet the tiver if you want to play like this. Else just call on river, you can't just shove everytime you hit your draw without looking on what's on board already.
