Pot control takes a dump on my hand - 2/4 NL

[JrJordan]

CO has 25/10 stats, but I've only been at the table for two orbits with him. He's cold called twice so far when I open raised. Button is an unknown at this point.

This flop is almost always an autobet, but I'm OOP on a pretty dry board vs. a guy who's cold called me in the two chances he's had. If a c-bet get's called, I'm in for a tough turn decision.

After the turn check through I make a blocking bet, though in retrospect I think c/c is a much better idea since it could induce a bluff and my block bet doesn't get much value from hands other than a turned Q.

That being said, what the hell is he representing with the river raise? No single pair can raise here and the only reasonable 2pair hands are 67 and KQ. 89 could be bluffraising the river when I make the half PSB. Did my play force me into a call on this river or do I just make the regular automuck?

what a weird hand. i'd bet the flop, riverbet is marginal and i'd probably end up calling the raise.

i think you played it fine if you call the raise.

It looks like a bluff raise, but i could be wrong

[mak15]

the flop check is ok to mix it up i guess, but if that's not your intention, you should bet.

river seems like a call even though people never make this bluff.

Anyone think villian has Kx [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] here? Just curious and I do agree it seems weird.

Fold this cheese pf, tpnk oop is not a hand you're gonna be extracting value with, and that is what led to all these problems on future streets where anything you do makes it tough for him to screw up too much.
