Ok as a first hand. But after a few of these I start letting my hand go.

Preflop, flop and turn are completely standard obviously. The only decision is whether to call the river which has -EV in a vacuum but is good for your image IMO.

oink posts well in this thread.

As soon as I see the flop I think "see you at showdown".

I don't really think the river is close. If this guy capped PF with a worse hand with no showdown value I expect him to barrel off. These types often suck at valuebetting also, so you'll sometimes get a cheap showdown against AJ+.

[Olrik]

i dont really get it. which hands do you expect to beat on the river?

[Oink]

Kx and other random crap.

Sharpies point is important as well. Often he will check Ax so when he bets his range is biased towards pp's and bluffs. The fact that he bets thus improves your eq.

Is this not a situation where your 3 betting creates a pot you cant fold to easy from and a call would give you an edge long run with these types?
What is wrong with a call pf. Raise flopp, and fold to t bet UI if one doesnt get a free turn and cheaper route to showdown?

stokken, what?

I disagree with Oink that river call is EV- in a vacuum, not with the information we have right now. this is a pretty standard call down for me.
