I'm value betting down to 95-52 exactly here.

I dunno about the weaker fives. I think my cutoff would be something like T5. At least we agree that 22 and 33 would be silly. A5=all aboard the valuetown express

I bet the river and feel pretty confident about getting called and winning.

i guess the point here is that i need a very specific read to make this bet.

wasnt this a pretty clear VB in SSHE? i dont have it with me so i forget the page...anyone have a copy on hand?

I don't have the book with me, but I know the passage you're talking about. It is read-specific. I think it was in the section on tells, where a signal of weakness shifted a weak hand into a value bet on the river.

I think the read you're looking for is someone who is raising with almost all pocket pairs between KK and 55 and who would have signaled he held a king by raising either preflop or on the flop.

the house is divided 50/50 it appears.

must not be standard

I think a lot depends on what you're goals are (like James. pointed out). if you want to project a v-betting machine, loose image, then its a bet. lately i've been projecting a Bernie-esque, tight so i can steal pots on occasion type-image, so i think this should have been a check here.
