I have no clue what to put him on here. Would he slowplay a boat this far? I think this is a fold but I'm not sure. Thoughts?

im folding this never, at 25nl he has a bare K plenty often to make this a call.

against a maniac or went-to-showdown 35% guy a call would be the go i guess.

it's possible he's not giving you credit for anything -- thinking you're flop and turn are a cbet and 2nd barrel (is your image loose aggro?). i guess neither a fold or call could be faulted too much. fold to a nit, call a loose player?

I agree with arden - I think it's close between calling and folding. Reads on the player or some knowledge of how he plays would make the decision for me.

Ya this is tricky. if you would consider him as tight I would fold but if he is loose its easy call. Agree with Arden...

I am folding this because you're hand isn't concealed and I doubt he raises the river with the naked K

if that jack wasnt out there i would call instantly. I think kj is wut he has. i think he would have raised the turn here if he had a naked king for fear of a 4th club falling. He played this well on the turn if he has kj. If it was an insta raise on the river (like within split seconds of it being the villan's turn to act) i would fold.

its sick but id fold this.

I don't think betting out a flush draw against 3 other people when second to act is a good plan for the flop.

Fold? My first thought was either push or call. He has a K here so often it's worth either IMO. It costs $8 to call to win $22? He has a boat here that often to consider a fold? No way.

FWIW Im a recent limit convert and probably have less xp than others but I like the way you played this hand. I like the aggressive draw, I think it disguises your hand somewhat; although with the board paired it's more risky. A read on villian would be nice though.

Hero checked pf, so it wouldn't be a c-bet. I agree that he might be putting you on crap and is trying to push you out of this pot though.

I call, it's not even close.
