25/50 6max play bad = tough river decision
 

i dont know much about villain other than that he is a 2+2er who i think plays more tourneys and PLO cash than NL cash. we haven't really tangled much so far, i think this is the 2nd time i've 3bet him. i've been pretty active over about 40 hands at the table.

meh I hate to say it but this seems mighty player dependent.. the size of his preflop calling range and his tendencies to bluff rivers are pretty vital here..

Without a read I fold..

I think it has more to do with their flop betting range. A lot of people very very routinely check back AJ/AQ here and will fire with JTs or 88 or 89s a lot.

I'd rather call the turn than the river.
