re: Poker & $25 NLHE Full Ring: $HE Full Ring: Calling down to river
I think the hand is played fine. I believe you can make an argument for a fold because if the villain had Jx or something that you beat they probably would either be betting larger on the river to get more folds or would be checking behind and taking their showdown value. However, with that being said sometimes you just have to call a triple barrel and I think this is one of them. In going through this hand before seeing the result, I never felt the villain had a big pocket pair. It felt to me that they had a hand similar to yours and if that is the feeling you have in hand then you call. The river bet is a value bet though but is this a type of player that would have Q10 and value bet there? I dont know about the villain so I cant answer that. I do believe its fairly close though and arguments for either play can be made but I'm going call.
