Call c/c most rivers.

The thing I hate about this line is that it doesn't extract the max from worse hands, unless he's on a total bluff.

If we're going to continue, I'd much rather 3-bet the turn, or at least call turn and lead river.

I'm not so sure about that. He's gonna get real suspicious if you 3-bet the turn here and could very well get away from a worse hand. So look weak, run the clock a bit, call, check the river, profit.

Well, calling the turn is going to look suspicious too.

Is he really going to value-bet worse after we call turn?

Actually the more I think about it I like call turn and LEAD river. Thoughts?

elaborate? this was my initial reaction. however, do you think a 17/13 is playing any hands that make a worse two pair? he's never doing this as a bluff (maybe w/ KQ?). maybe he could have an absolutely retardedly played overpair or AJ but i think his range is heavily waited toward 77/89/JT.

calling and then calling on the river is probably the best but the more i look at this the more I think that folding can't be awful.

This isn't that bad, but I'd typically call and re-evaluate the river.

sample is 30 hands, we have no idea if he's 17/13 or not. I'd consider folding if I had like 500 hands and he's a supernit (then I'd still call and c/c river).
