Converter didn't take the rake out...pot was actually a bit smaller.

This is a perfect line on flop/turn. I call on riv because I think his range is heavily polarized (bluff/big hand) but I suppose raise to $25/fold is ok too. If you do raise however you gotta fold to a push which is why I call.

why did you chec the turn?Anyways seems like a clear call

Yep well call or raise to 20-25 and fold to a push were the two options I considered. Looking forward to more opinions on it.

No draws to worry about it. So that a pocket pair lower than A will put more in on river (Same could be said for weak aces and maybe 9's). So he might bluff with nothing or not much on river. Another bonus is that I'd probably lose less to two pair or a set.



And yea it obviously is at least a call.

I think the decision is on the turn rather than the river. If you want to raise the river for value you should probably just go ahead and bet the turn. I prefer a check on the turn because it gets very difficult to find the correct line if he ckraises (could easily be overplaying AQ AJ etc).

I like checking the turn cause TT-KK,9x may put some more money in on river if you check turn. Weak aces definitely won't get spooked this way and might call if hero raises river. Also villian may have no hand and might bluff river if hero checks turn.

And it controls pot size with TPTK on dry board to lose less to A9,99, other sets/2pairs.
