if this is our gabe which im assuming it is, he can have quite a few hands here some of which you beat and some you dont. calling down youll probably lose EV, because i think he would give up on the river some of the times he's messing with you (which are not super frequent btw but often enough to be a hindrance).

the thing to figure out would be if he has any sort of read on you which he most likely does. you needed to know what that is in order to not be at his mercy because of his position. for instance if he thinks youre playing on scared money (did you buy in one rack or three?) or good or a lag or what.

is gabe a guy who'd raise some two overs spade hand on the turn like a lot of guys seem to be doing nowadays? or will he mostly show up with hands that beat you here? i'm certainly checkcalling the safe river given that you have a decent showdownable hand and this is the first time you two are tangling.

Turn call is easy. Calling the river if he bets again is the tougher decision, but you should probably call it since the turn was a nice semibluffing card.

imo this is a bad spot to semibluff on the turn in a commerce game

If this is the Gabe I'm thinking of... then he might be raising this turn with any pocket pair (trying to charge your possible AK or other draw), he might have AK himself, looking for a free showdown, and you might be crushed.

I say call turn, Pray river is a baby, check... I think he checks behind.

Im pretty sure that the gabe im talking about is who everybody thinks he is.

I cc river and he shows me Q6s for a busted draw and i scoop. Is that pretty standard, I think his read on me was a young kid just taking stab with scared money which i was not

BTW... i forgot to mention in my previous post that I love the aggressive CC on the river... you gotz him for another 120 by deciding on the turn that your hand was good :-)

There are at least 2 gabes that people might be thinking of and I'm pretty sure one of them is mucking Q6s.
