NL200 - Should I call villains bet on river?

[DirteAA]

A worse two pair?

Call, I think he c/r on flop ith two pair or set. He may put you on KK or such after you check on turn.

Not even close.

Calling is not close?

I think the hand is perfect if you called river. This could easily be a busted flush draw as well. A read on villain would be very helpful.

How could you not call?

I meant it's not even close to a fold. Call obv.

I dont think I could fold here ever, after the action.

As played you have to call, although you are going to see a better hand a good amount of the time.

This is really not a spot for check behind type pot control play. Because 1) the pot started out multiway 2)It is pretty draw heavy. Also because it was not RR pre, I dont think AK is much of a concern here. So he either has a weaker A like AT or AJ, a set, or a draw. The fact that it was four to the flop makes it very unlikely that he would bluff/semi-bluff raise the turn, so a turn bet will tell you where you are very accurately and most likely will not get him to fold a worse hand simply because people tend to have a hard time folding TP and get stubborn with their draws.

The real problem with your line is if you dont hit the Q you really give up control of the pot size. You give him the chance to put you in a tough spot by dictating how much he wants to bet, and are going to have a hard time putting him on a hand. Checking behind would be much more standard in a heads-up pot on the flop where you opened and had one caller in the blinds.

Thank you for your response!

The results: Villain had 33, hence a set and he won the pot. But whatsoever, I like a call as I said before.
