I like the call, CO could have a higher straight or flush.

It's probably weak/passive, but there's a flush draw and possible higher straights on the board. So i don't mind it too much.

Call. Both the FD and the OESD (56) got there on the turn. You've shown strength by betting all three streets and villain is raising anyway.

Is it just me or are the above two posts a little odd? Im sure it wasnt intended, but the above two seem to say "Call because it is likely villain has a flush or higher straight"

I think you played it just fine. Call is fine on the river.

I'm not ripping on you, I just thought it was interesting that two posts were worded such that they came out with the wrong meaning.
