reads would be nice. the only real question is the river, push or smaller value bet, and that really depends on villan.

edit: against a donk this is quite often a weak ace, so i'd go with the smaller value bet.

looks good. Though I rarely overbet the river unless I know someone is just a horrific calling station. I'm too afraid they'll call.

Seems fine. Depending on my opponent I might bet less on the river.

Im a nit sometimes but I fold pf. Everything else is standard. The river overbet is barely an overbet at all. I cant qualify ~12 bb's over the pot as much of an overbet.

How much on river?

He tanked, used time bank and folded. I'm a tourney -&gt; cash game donk so I'm used to shoving rivers often.

If you dont think hes particularly strong I dont mind a bet of like 18 on the river to get paid off.

Villain prob just doesn't want to get too attached to his one pair aces, but $18-24 might get paid off, except that it stinks of value betting lol. Shove is prob fine. Pf is fine if it's not 100% of the time, nh

If I think a player is weakish, I bet around 1/2 pot.

IMO his check on the river only means 1 of 2 things. He either is weak, which is why you should probably throw out a smaller bet to get paid off. OR he is strong and he thinks that he is trapping you and that you will throw out another bet, which he will reraise if he is in fact strong(which you dont need to worry about cause you have the nuts). Going by this I think it just is more logical to throw out value bet instead of pushing here because it covers both these instances while pushing only works if he is strong.
