NL 100: Butchered a hand. Am I a moron for considering this call?
I butchered this every which way I could have. Villain is 23/18/7 over 120 hands. Hero's image is about 19/17/3 and tight UTG. The flop was a huge mistake. I don't know wtf I was thinking with the size of the flop bet with an overpair in a 3way pot. Should have been more like 11 or 12, but I was in two other big pots at the time and messed up.

Given button's aggression, hero is wondering what J would be in his range, given that hero raised UTG. There's a busted FD out. I would have hear from 88/22/33 before the river. And if villain had the J, what is he putting Hero on that he will think he would get a $50 river call. Easy fold here? |

Wow, you are harder on yourself than I am on myself. You played it fine. $10 might be better on the flop especially with 3 opponents. Maybe $20 on the turn. River was a bit wimpy. You can b/f here but bet at least $40. No matter how you played it, I think you have to fold the river. JT/QJ/sets are much more likely than air.

The only time you would want to lead this weak on the river, imo, is when you are trying to induce a push/big raise. If calling a push/big raise is something you don't want to do, then a check is much better here I think. I think you need to be checking or at least making a real bet here to make your decision easier.

How is CC river to induce bluffs from missed draws? Only thing is you get no value from 99 or TT, but it's iffy they call after betting three streets.

[/ QUOTE ] As soon as I made the bet, I thought it should have been bigger so as not to induce a bluff and therefore a raise would be an easy fold. c/c a reasonable bet is also much better than the line I took. But once at this spot, what are the chances I have induced a bluff? |

c/c the river is a lot better than b/f. every draw missed and a lot of his made hand range that he is calling with is beating you now anyway. And obv bet sizing wasn't good.
Edit: I probably fold the river unless you know hes really aggro. |

bet sizing is off on every street
check river. call depending on size. |

Bet the turn bigger imo.
c/c river is better than b/f and c/f is to weak I think vs this opponent. He's range does include J's but also missed flush draws that could draw at a cheap prices wich he will be bluffing with on the river. so c/c imo |
