Default Re: Sexy, Yes?

This flop bet-reraise is a bit sexy too, right? I sometimes bet-3bet, but my usual play would be to check-raise. Should I be doing this the other way around?

As for this river check-raise I personally wouldn't consider this but I never get sexy. You obv. might miss value from certain middle pairs or a good ace that will call your bet especially after the FD misses on the river. I don't think these or less will bet to your check at the river and won't always call a raise if they do.

If I was villain I think I'd have to value bet a good 9 (not that I would have that given PF action) or better on the river if checked to, and given the way the hand has been played, I think most villains will pay you off. But wouldn't most villains with those stats have put in more action on flop or turn with their overpairs (especially given the drawy board - getting you to pay for your draw you are semi-bluffing some portion of the time)? Or perhaps they were waiting for the river to raise you?

I reckon the river should be bet-reraised.
