i call here and don't feel bad about it (and i'm a nit).

Re: set on 4straight board vs whale
 

oh, additional info: i 3bet him like twice in the last 3 orbits with AK and won the pots without showing (he called each time, tho). thats why i didnt defend pf + take that into consideration.

Re: set on 4straight board vs whale
 

I call since I'm a station and diamonds missed, but I'd often just stick it in myself here for value and hope he calls with 2 pr.

yeh didn't think of that, shove river, he calls unless he has diamonds.

Re: set on 4straight board vs whale
 

Yeah I'd bet or shove the river myself. As played it's &lt; 1/2 pot and an obvious draw missed, plus he's a huge moron, I'd call fairly quickly.

Re: set on 4straight board vs whale
 

I def raise more on the flop. Shove river given read.

Re: set on 4straight board vs whale
 

I'd have put in a defensive bet on the end. If he raises you then you're probably toast.

As played, it's down to three hands 1) he's either bluffing, which isn't likely (has some piece of the board); 2) has the straight (TJ or QT fit into the pattern; or 3) 2pr is a possibility (QJ) and I believe he would value bet that on the river since it looks like a perfect opportunity to bluff with 4 to a straight and what may look like a missed flush draw to you and he hopes to get paid off by a Q.

Checking the river puts you in such a difficult position. But as played, I would call because it's such a good spot to bluff and you beat just about everything except the straight.

Bet the river and your flop raise size is gross.
