c/c or fold depending on your reads, but I lean towards calling most river bets

bet/fold. I think checking sucks. Problem is that he usually has a straight/flush or something that will check behind.

Yea sure would suck if he checked a flush behind here.
Actually i like c/c on river cause he's pretty aggro, i'd like to have a look at his AF at river before i decide to c/c though.

b/f is perfectly fine aswell.

150 and fold. 200 seems a little too much here, 150-130 gets called by worse more. No one bluff raises here anyway.

Pretty clear that's not what I said. Even if you don't like the way I phrased it, it's pretty clear what I meant.

I like a C/C on river. I don't really know how I feel about the turn bet. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? There are just so many hands that are beating you on the turn.
