Default Re: Raise 2pr for value on 4-str8 board

what adds some complexity to our river spot is our openlimp. most any reasonable player will raise going first in with an ace or king in that preflop situation.

had we raised pf and proceeded to bet flop, etc., i feel like a raise would have less value. we would have represented a stronger hand in that scenario which would make it tough for alot of one pair hands to pay us off.

the limp pf, combined with the flop raise/turn check seems so odd that i think we get looked up here by quite a few top pair hands, and maybe even some strong kings. definitely two pair and unlikely sets. so i'm saying i guess i would raise the river as played, but i'm folding to a 3bet. if i'm afraid of someone is going to take shots, i'll just payoff later(truth be told, i'm such a showdown monkey these days that will take care of itself).
