i'm not folding this, but i keep thinking about it though and i dont know what to do. has he taken this line before? there are so many rivers we don't like, so i think i would shove

tough hand

!

shoving seems like the worst possible play

Re: 5 10 NL heads up vs whhahhahahah
 

i give up. i played way too much poker tonight and my brain is shot, but why do you think shoving is terrible?

Re: 5 10 NL heads up vs whhahhahahah
 

Isn't this KJ/J9 like pretty much all the time? The range of hands you're 2-barreling that board with appears to be pretty strong, like KQdd minimum but weighted more toward 2-pair, set and straight combinations. I bet Villain knows that, and how often is he going to be raising with a worse hand in that spot? Maybe like 1-2%? His turn check-raise means he's got you beat.

Straightforward fold imo.

Not sold on that quite yet.

Re: 5 10 NL heads up vs whhahhahahah
 

if you think you're behind you should fold. if you think you're ahead you should call. there is no real scenario in which he has a hand such that you shoving now makes worse hands call or better hands fold, so for every hand in his range either folding or calling is optimal.
