Default HU hand from 10k post

villain seems at least ok, on the aggro/bluffy side in our short session. i probably look like i'm on the tight side.

River: ($120) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">SB bets $84</font>, Hero calls $84

my feeling was the A didn't change anything. it obviously didn't change anything of whether or not i was ahead (i guess it helped a little technically since that was one fewer A that villain could have). and the fact that he bet really didn't worry me much either.

it's a decent bluffing spot for him (it would be a better one if there had been a flush draw on the flop that i could've missed). and it will probably stop him from running some thin vbets with hands like 77 or maybe even T8. he also should not be too worried that i have an A because i'd often bet the river with it. so it's going to make him bluff some more marginal spots and check behind some winners, so i decided to call.

edit: this is somewhat related to this post.
