MakeItRain plays weird. Bet a little more on the turn, but otherwise there's not much value to be had on the river. I expect you to have the best hand most of the time but I don't think his calling range is wide enough to make a bet correct.

This hand needs background. What's he running at? 6 months ago he goes from $1/$2 52/35 8-tabling vegetative retard to $1/$2 32/25 8-tabling standard drooler to, recently, a solid 19/11 TAG at $3/$6. And now he's playing $0.5/$1?

My default is to assume he's being a moron like usual, in which case I think you played this fine because he could c/r bluff riv if you value bet and put you to a fairly tough decision.

Actually I think you played this fine regardless of what mode he's in, but I still love hearing MakeItRain gossip cause he's my favorite player ever.

He has always sucked, but I haven't seen him in months, so I don't know his recent style. He had J7o. What an idiot.

You played it well. Actually I would have bet a bit more money on the turn. The river really saved your stack.
