Default Top pair blind vs blind against lagfish

Have villain at like 40/25, pretty aggro from what I've seen and my impression is that he doesn't like to give up pots, but it's by far from a concrete read. My image is aggro tag probably. Thoughts on this?

well...if u called the turn, I guess u'll need to call that river.

does he 3 bet alot? I find these 40/25 types don't 3 bet much. so AQ, QK, sometimes AK are all within his range. pluse TJ for sure.

I donno, A4 A5 is possible, but that would be pretty sick. Does he raise flop with those hands? ( u never know with unknown fishes)

however, I'd folding somewhere on the turn prob. u'r bluff catching a missed FD only, I don't know what other bluffable hand he could have.

i am either taking this line or folding the flop/turn.

i probably can't fold the flop actually so i'd pitch the turn. people just don't bluff raise flops like that too often

i like this a lot

i'd kind of prefer a "bad" river since i think his bluff freq is higher but i'm calling basically any river as played

Ummm, I like folding the turn. What can you beat but a bluff?

KQ and JT seem particularly likely hands to me.

You like this a lot because he gave a spew tard a chance to value-bet three streets?


The fish doesn't have JT, KQ?

terp is saying that a bad river card should narrow villain's value-shoving range (like he's probably not just shoving AT anymore), so if villain does shove a bad river he's bluffing at a higher frequency, which is true imo.

I get the concept of a bad river gives V more chances to bluff. HOWEVER, the way this hand played out. All the hands that are considered bluffs b4 the river will have hit, and now will be v betting. and the hands that were ahead..well..its still vbetting or checking.

this idea would make alot more sense if there was a straight draw on the table and the flush missed and the the straight draw complete.
