Default Turned top two (25nl)

Villain is like 51/30/2.33 after 75 hands

Should I re-raise the turn? Should I just check call the river instead of betting? I figured he is calling me with worse two pairs and maybe something like KQ/KJ

I flat call this river as he probably isn't calling with many worse hands than what you hold.

Villain is showing alot of strength on the turn... smells like a set. Either slow-rolled 33 or 77, or he made it on the turn with 99. Top 2 isnt the nuts... just flat call on the river.

Me like. You are ahead of so many two-pairs that he is calling with, that the check-raise is sweet.

I would play the same way through the River... I'd probably just flat call the river bet fearing monsters under the bed... but being able to raise for value here I guess is what separates the men from the boys... I'm still a boy.

I agree here. I also think villian either has 33/77/99 because on the turn he show a lot of strength. Did you have any reads on villian so far?

On the river I would flat call here. I bet he had trips here.

1) I don't like completing K9o here. The hand just sucks too hard out of position.

2) Given your read "I figured he is calling me with worse two pairs and maybe something like KQ/KJ" then the river c/r is great, but you better be sure of this read because if villain can lay down hands that you mentioned this play is pretty -EV. Your read though does seem realistic given villain's stats.

Has this guy really been bad enough to call off 200bb with top pair weak kicker? Stats are one thing, but even uber donks would fold almost anything you beat to a river c/r.
