NL100 - Are we calling this river??
 

Villain is awful - Just got to the table but seems to be playing most hands.

What is the line on the river here?

i prob just set him in myself

Re: NL100 - Are we calling this river??
 

I bet flop bigger, turn bigger and shove river, now way I'm folding as played he could have missed spades, single jacks , single king of spades I just say meh and shove

Re: NL100 - Are we calling this river??
 

I'd say i have to call. You're getting about 2.5:1 odds and i think thats enough. If the villain is bad he may shove with hands that we beat.

I would reluctently call, because I really can't put him on anything here. Did he make a super loose call on flop and hit his King on the turn? What would you put him on?

I'dd just push river

Re: NL100 - Are we calling this river??
 

as played I call.

But why did you check river? I think betting is way better.

I agree, at least as a preventative measure. Say, $20, he'll probobly still push but if you're starting to second guess the hand, it's worth a shot.

cant he play a JT like this? this is either a T, or a pure bluff...and im leaning to a JT/9T hand

fold river certainly


but bet more on flop+turn, just get it in
