I was not too familiar with villain, but I can't imagine he would make this move as a bluff practically ever. Are there enough hands that a tight conservative player will push for value here that I beat (weaker 10s I suppose) that can justify this call? Any other thoughts about my line are appreciated.

sounds like u understand the situation. hes not bluffing but might be VBing the worst hand.
personally, i dont think 10:3 is enough to call here, guy like this pushes river after u bet all streets OOP and deep stacked, he usually has QQ.

If he reraises you fold, is that difficult lol

live play plays alot different than online play and people are far more passive. sometimes i see many of you say some scenarios are insta-calls but in live play many of them are insta-folds. its just the dynamics between the two games.

if i was in this hand id have to think about this river. whether i call or not is largely going to depend on whether i think villain puts me on AA-KK-AQ after betting 3 streets and whether hed value-push a smaller ten on this river or not. generally though, against the described player i think you probably have to call.

after rereading the post sober i think u gotta call here, but i really dont like these bet sizes, esp the river bet. u really put yourself in this tricky spot.

He's gone to showdown light but this is his first aggression. Yikes. Question I have is the size of your bets and were they related to your image. Is pot control an issue there or were you making the same size bets when you missed with AK? Did you get looked up empty?

All your bets were >1/2 but <3/4's. Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't it better to go between at least 3/4's and pot there?
