the bet is too much. bet smaller, about $50 would be perfect. fold to a shove.

Agreed. Your river bet is a bit too high. You probably thinking that villain will call your large sized bet because of your image. Definitely the river cries for a bet. I would bet half of the pot.

I think making a small bet and folding to a shove is extremely exploitable here.

against an aggressive opponent a bet/fold is indeed exploitable. in that case i would check/call. however, this is against an unknown, and most players at this level do not have the balls to push that river.

Wow, then he played every street as poorly as possible.

With his line I definitely would not put him on 88.

It is exploitable but only if people are willing to exploit it! And in my experience nobody check/raise bluffs the river enough for you to have to worry about it.

agreed. Unless you have a lot of history with villain I like betting a little less and folding to a shove.
