Your games are absolutely amazing sir!
Poker is alive and well with villian calling down with KJ there .
Bold play on river you made, most would have simply called villan's river raise fearing KQ, J8, JJ, 55, Q8, or JQ. Big Blind going to have a wide range usually.
However someone else made a good point, you massively over-shoved river and I'm surprised villian called. In most cases I'd expect villian folds to a check/shove so a nice value raise gets the job done. But sometimes you're getting called down with a hand
that crushes you.
Awesome you read it and profited but a sometimes in this hand situation you're going to be run over lol. That said I think calling or a small re-raise on his river bet is sufficient because sometimes in this scenario you're getting called by better if you shove and that's going to sting a bit. You shoved over 3K to win like $400, how often are you def winning this spot?
Tough spot, good read, but careful on these spots; a thick value bet might be the better line long term.
