3/6 Top Two On a Bad Board.

[Mossberg]

Villain is a 40/2 over 40 hands, so basically unknown.

I'm unsure about this hand.. I'd assume the turn bet is standard but whats my best line on the river? b/c, c/c, b/f??. I have a hard time believing any even somewhat decent play is raising this river with anything less than trips, so I'm kinda furious with myself for calling that raise. I'm breakeven for the past 40k hands and am really questioning my play in every which way..

I think at 1/2 or 2/4 where I play the correct play is b/f, but I wouldn't be able to do it.

B/c might become correct in 3/6 games. I don't think c/c is the correct line in any game as you have almost announced that you are showing down.

Bet/call. He's got A5 or some such retarded hand enough of the time. That said, a lot of times (esp when tilty) I will check/call in this spot because I smell a raise coming. The turn call makes you wonder what the hell he has. Then when you get raised on the river, you feel taken advantage of the times he has it. So that's why I check/call on occasion. But I think bet/call is the correct play.

Bet/fold is the correct play after the turn action. He either has the jack, he missed the diamond flush, or he has a weak hand like a pair of kings or aces. That said, I have really come to dislike bet folding at the lower limits so i'd either bet/call or c/c. I might lean toward c/c because lately I've seen some really dumb bluffs/"value bets" made by opponents when I check to the on the river. So I think i would say bet/fold in an ideal world, but in reality you should c/c, you might still get a bet in with the best hand.

As played I think I'd have to call.
