[NL 25] Turned Straight gets min-raised

[hurtchow]

The only read I have on the villian (SB) is that he is somewhat a calling station. A check/min raise by these players is usually the nuts, in my experience. what do you recommend for the river?

If your read is that he's a calling station, I don't think he's check-raising the turn with a spade draw. He most likely has two pair or a set that he just let you draw out on. Bet river for value.

Hero raises more on the turn. Something like $15 total. The pot is $10 when it gets back to you. You want to stick in close to a pot sized raise. That min raise is great news. You have the nuts. He has a hand he's trying to milk you with. Try to get most/all of the money in on the turn. The rest is going in on the river regardless of what falls.

As is, you have less than a pot sized bet behind. Hero bets for value. Stick it in there. You have too much hand to be outthinking yourself.
