Default Re: too fancy for nl10?

I'm guessing most likely villain has a 9 with an OK kicker and doesn't like the board too much.

Nevertheless, whether or not your river bet will work depends a great deal on how likely he is to lay down a one pair hand on this board. I don't think I try this without at least some read on the villain, but against someone who has shown some weak-tight tendencies this is a good spot to bluff.

Most of the time though the board isn't going to cooperate this much so I think calling the flop is -EV in general. The kind of player who is check-raising this flop without some kind of hand is not the kind of player who is check-folding this river very often
