Am I sick for wanting to check-raise the turn here? This guy seems super-aggro (1.45 is huuuge for his VPIP). I'd expect him to bet every time we check to him.

since we have the Ad I think we can assume this is a straight at best. Would there be anything wrong with just shoving or bet/calling 70 on the river? I don't think we should be folding here ever so I think we should commit ourselves with a bet

what does the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] have to do with anything? his range is still huge even without the nfd or top pair and flush draw

turn bet is a little small given stack sizes left. u dont wanna leave PSB on the river, u would prefer just under pot

if u bet turn for $5 more, the pot is $125 with $105 left for a blank river, so it's slightly easier than $111 into $117.i actually think the worst 2pairs out there dont bet this river, btu i just hate folding sets [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

maybe i call. in the past i've actually value shoved this hand in certain spots.

Obvious fold

I made a crying call, my thinking was that he wouldn't have a jack here unless he either flopped the straight or had a flush draw with the jack of hearts.

In the end he had Q9 of hearts, but I'm not 100% sure that calling was the right play. I agree with all of you who said I should have potted the turn, it would have made the river a much easier call. Thanks for the comments.
