Default Re: Stars 10NL midpair facing huge river overbet

[ QUOTE ]
You can only beat a pure bluff. Standard fold. Backdoor spades got there. That might add up, weak betting the flop, pause and call turn, overbet river. Or a Ten. I think this is a pretty strong play. What else is he getting to the river with? Most sevens have you beat, I don't think this is ever a six or three. It's either nothing or a big made hand.

Uh, leading turn is meh... especially for that amount. You should bet like .35 or check. I don't see much reason to continue though and would c/f.

I led out on the turn because I read him for weakness. If he calls the .25, I doubt the .35 makes him fold. I could've gone .3 I guess, I think .35 doesn't accomplish enough for the additional money.

It's not that I'm contemplating calling or raising this river so much. I just am really confused by opponents all of a sudden coming out with a big overbet after making min-bets or check-calling.
