100bb river donk
 

Villian is a 30/15/3 regular that is a breakeven player / marginally winning player possibly. He plays enough to the point I'm guessing he's up or up after RB.

Much debate between my friends to no really definitive answer. I think that most of you will lean towards call, but I don't think its obvious given preflop reraise (smaller since raise min at first, but still a factor)

What are your thoughts? Ready... GO.

1) Don't kill your implied odds preflop

2) Don't kill your implied odds preflop

3) Worst river ever. I think I fold.

Re: 100bb river donk
 

I think that is very good advice. Thank you.

I think that I reraise on the button there to not have my cards be completely transparent when I have premium hands.

Maybe just a call is in order preflop given the raise min and my hand strength in multi-way pots. Thanks.

I believe that was OOP though. That was also in a blind steal with normal raise amount ($35 in these stakes) and a full reraise.

$35 to $120 OOP is much different than $20 to $70 in position. They are trying to accomplish slightly different goals as well.

I was just joking about PF, its fine.

I mean i really can't say correctly without having played the player but you are risking 970 to win 440 when you are chopping, so you have to chop 66% of the time for this to be profitable. So i think this really depends on your opps ability to make big river bluffs, if you know he does i think this is a crying call, however if he isn't its unlikely that he would even make this bet with a lone J, and thus it is a fold.
