AA ugly Rivercard

[Apanage]

Bet/fold is best against a majority of players.But a thinking TAG would identify this spot as being one to do something similar to a value/bluff raise on river.And we also have the half retarded that raises without realizing why it can be a good spot to raise. The cost of being up against those players is enormous since you lose the whole pot but against the other players you´re winning a bet only occasionally.
That being said I still think the players that raise the river with a lesser hand is so few that bet/fold is OK.
But it is a dangerous habit to bet/folding scary rivers.
If you done this against me I would have written a note about it before the next hand was dealt since I don´t have to be Einstein to put you on an overpair.

You must bet, and I would call a raise against an unknown.

If you put 108 and 107 in his range, you have to ask is he going to raise that on the river? If he has 108 then I don't think so, because he would have raised the turn. The river card is a big scare card for 108. I also don't think he raises 107, even though he upgraded to two pair, again, that's a very scary card for his hand.

Raising the turn with T8 would obviously be a huge mistake of him anyway.

TY. I wanted to know the reasoning behind b/f rather than c/c.

You should bet because he is checking behind a lot of the hands that would have called a bet. He might check beind AT, KT, QT, JT, T8, 55, 44, 33, 22, 98s and prolly a few more.

If you check he knows what you have and he will valueown you if his IQ is higher than 2.

The point I was trying to make was that I dont care what you do vs a raise as log as you dont c/c. I will prolly b/c an unknown here but IMO its something like

b/c >> b/f >>>>>>>>>>>>&g t;>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> c/c

Besides. He doesnt have a 9 very often. He might have the fd but its not even sure he will raise it if he is a bit weak and bad. Just bet and pick up value from KT.
