Villain raises the river. OP, your play?

Personally, I fold.

I was banking on him having a smaller pair.

Even if Hero would call a river raise I think there is value in the bet. Check/calling this river = I cant play poker

What worse hands do you expect him to bet with?

He is calling A high and lower pp's. Even worse hands than A high will look you up here.

I agree that calling a river raise is bad and I dont want to nitpick but

b/f >>>>>>> b/c >>>>>>>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>> c/c

Oink, I agree that B/F is certainly better than c/c as long as hero doesnt get in the habit of making stupid river calls using some "but i'm getting 6:1" bs argument.

I'm guessing this is for an unknown?

Against a loose passive that might call with Ax or worse then a B/F makes sense. Against a particularly aggressive opponent that will bet when you show weakness but make you pay if he has Qx or Kx, then C/C does in fact, make sense.

Not really. Kx would often put in a raise earlier, and aggressive doesn't necessarily mean they'll valuebet a low pocket pair on this board, or turn their A high into a bluff.
