Opponent is 50/4. I haven't played for a month and he made some plays that confused me.

If he is an aggro fish, and I don't have a good read on him, then calling down hoping for a flush draw (or an overplayed 77) is OK, I think. Fold this river, though.

If he is loose-passive, then just fold to the flop 3-bet.

I fold this river. I don't think there are many hands, if any, that you beat on the river.

If you are going to call almost any river, why not raise the turn and check the river? I like that line more than the one you took.

Thanks,

Guido
