lol just call his river raise

Im shoving here. This could be a badly slowplayed trips or whatever else. 76 just got there for the straight so Im happy to get it in. I doubt he is folding any trips or straight here to a shove so anything else is just leaving cash on the table imo.

[whyzze]

i like donking flop or turn here.


shove is fine imo...hes shortish.

don't play for a lot of money in an unraised pot w/o da nuts. he could literally have any two

This is fine. Worse straights are out there and definitely more plausible for him to have than a boat.
