Default Re: 2pair facing river shove on 50NL

The flop lead isn't obligatory, but aside from that, it's hard to see an easy way out of this mess.

Unimproved on the turn, it looks like a time for caution, and meanwhile I think you could just check-fold some random diamond. But as it is, you hit a card that's quite likely either terrific for you or about the worst thing you could have caught.

And, damn, on the river I might tell myself that CO probably has been slowplaying a set or his AT (possibly specifically AdTd) just hit, but the decision doesn't seem easy to me.

My guess is that a fold is best. You will get to see the hands, for what that's worth, but I'd imagine that sometimes the information will be tilt-inducing (it would be for me).
