Default Can I raise/fold THIS river?

live game 7 handed
I have only been in the game for about 10 minutes. BB here plays a lot and has played a lot with me. He plays OK, and is likely a winner in most Canterbury games, but limps too much in EP and has a few other leaks. He also often wears sunglasses, which I emjoy, but he does not have them on tonight. I have not seen him get out of line often, and in this session I have not seen him do anything.

folds to me in the CO and I raise K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], SB folds, BB 3bets, I call.

Flop HU: J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
BB dark bets the flop, I call.

turn: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

BB bets, I raise, BB calls.

river: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB bets, can I raise/fold here?

Sure, why not. There's like absolutely no way you're ever getting 3bet here the way the hand went down anyway.

Please don't fold your set of 5s in the 10/20 online hand.

It looks like AT-AK to me. He could be 3-betting AJ on the river.

I like it. Your river raise pretty much represents exactly what you have, and he is saying he can beat it 2:1. I guess he could be going nuts with KQd but why worry about such things. He obviously has some type of made hand, so if he's your standard player, and you don't have him on tilt, why isn't he just happy to see a showdown?

If you raise and he 3 bets, calling that 3 bet would be retarded. The people who said raise/call have clearly never played live poker.
