Default Re: NL50: Valuebet at river with TPMK

I raise A10 from the CO all day...I'll even raise much weaker aces from the CO and sometimes all aces from the button...the trick is to abuse position and not get attached to your pair of aces.

I often check this turn here...he isn't going to be calling with much worse, and you have a pretty good idea where you stand by his river action..he can't really expect you to bet so he will define the strength of his hand. He he leaves river I usually just call unless its a large pot..thats usually "oh [censored] turn check raise failed gotta make up for missed value!!" I don't really mind the small river bet here...maybe a little large like $5 but betting 2/3 - PSB isn't really going to get you a lot of value. $5 can get calls from a pair of 8s or 7s.

I end up calling this raise on the river because our hand is underrepresented, it looks like a weak bluff or maybe a scared JJ trying to get value. Our cbet flop and check turn line is rather weak and I doubt villain would try to slowplay a big hand on the river because we check behind here a lot, I expect too see a lot of random hands on the river.
