villain is unknown. i was kinda lost on the turn. i checked the turn for pot control, should i have just bet? when he made his small turn i felt it was likely he was trying to draw cheaply, so i raised. i think that my raise only folds out worse made hands in retrospect. on the river i was c/fing.

I think with how you played it, I value shove river all day and get looked up by Ax. At least at NL10.

there must be this untapped goldmine of fish at NL10 that i can't seem to find, because i rarely if ever find someone that calls with worse on this river.

lol...Honestly, I've been called here with less than an ace before. I guess you need to table select better :/

[youngmachetes]

i never said it doesn't happen, but i specifically said villain is unknown.

[JimboNYY24]

Well an unknown at NL10 this is probably a shove. If you don't think you are ahead of his turn calling range you probably shouldn't have raised the turn, and instead just c/c c/c.

[youngmachetes]

i said in op i don't really like my turn line, i was looking for alternatives/better ways to play the hand overall.

[JimboNYY24]

OK well I gave you one :P. Good luck at the tables.

[Spurious]

i'd bet out on the turn, if he raises i am probably outta there.
as played river is a c/f, at best you split here
