getting 5:1 on river with a pair of 5s
 

Villain is 51/7 after 41 hands, no other reads besides more stats, which don't mean a whole lot with this sample. I don't recall, but there's a good chance I've raised a lot of his limps given his stats, so he's probably picked up on how often I steal.

Comments on all streets appreciated

call turn, you're not making him fold his pair of Queens or fd/sd

riv: when you miss, ez fold

agree w/ turn call and not raise

as played the fold is by no way trivial, since there's stuff you beat and you are offered superb odds in a decent sized pot

I don't want him to fold his fd/sd, I'm destroying him if he's on a draw unless he has Qxs or Q4.
