Flopped a straight facing an overbet on the river.

Villain was about a 55/25/4 at the time the hand took place, but last time I saw him wake up on the river, he showed the nuts. Thoughts?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE wait more than 20 minutes before bumping your own thread. PLEASE!

Without a good read I like folding the bottom end of the 4-card straight to the massive overbet. You may win a lot of money if you're right. But there are plenty of other opportunities ahead.

Don't got broke with the sucker end of the straight...especially with 4 on the board.

I agree, im folding this on the river.

I think theres a good chance villian flopped a str8 too.

because that river doesn't change anything in this hand unless villain is a monumental donk

Sorry. I'm impatient.

As to the hand, I really thought I was chopping at best. I let the timer run to to the last second before I finally folded. The only reasons I considered calling was because I was having a hard time putting the villain on Q and he was fairly aggressive post flop, frequently overbetting pots. However, after I potted it on two previous streets, his river lead for nearly twice the pot on the river screamed Q to me. I don't think he was making a move here and I don't like calling overbets to chop in a best case scenario. I suppose he could have had Q7.

What's villain's SN? There's one who's been playing the 100s who likes to make big river bluffs exactly like this one...

His sn starts w/ uc and ends w/ 21 and he has similar stats.... otherwise this is a fold...

[PayoffWiz]

Nope not uc...21.
