$5.50. Very good chance you are ahead here, so you need to protect your hand.

Ok - ty, that's what I figured. I think I screwed up the river but I would like to hear thoughts without anyone seeing the action first.

Given no reads, I wouldn't think the typical NL25 player is sophisticated to call the flop and semi-bluff raise the turn with a draw. That seems to mean keep betting. A call means you're ahead of a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] draw + OC and a raise means he flopped the nuts. It seems hard for him to have a 3 here.

i doubt you're ahead on the turn very often, you're losing to every pp and aren't a big fav to any combo draw. slim is right when he says typical nl25ers won't bluff the turn, but they will call with hands that beat you, so i would c/f.

Well, you heard from bet/fold and check/fold. Now you're hearing from check/call. Bet/call probably isn't coming and bet3bet is AWOL.

(depends on villian - going readless as stated)

I c/c river. Looks like a draw too often for me to fold and there aren't a lot of worse hands that can call you on the river.

[DevinLake]

Just sat so I don't have stats on the guy.

But, he's played every hand and already stacked me once.

He called 25bbs preflop with ATs and stacked me when he turned a flush and I had JJ. So, his range preflop seems to be close to ATC, especially when he posted out of turn.

It is close imo. Unknown full stacker I'd go with a fold, but unknown with some amount less that means he's not a full stacker (e.g. $75) and I'll probably go with it.

It is just a little weird for him to flat a big ace pre and then c/r on the flop.

Villian is 53/7. Comments on all streets please.

1) I'd check pre-flop

2) As played, flop is fine

3) Turn I'd probably check behind, but I guess you're fine.

4) A big "WTF" at river.
