FTP 2.5/5 Thin river value bet with KK
I am new to the table, and villian is unknown, so no stats. However, from what I have seen he appears to be a donk. He limps around a lot and seems passive. I was kind of lost on this river. I decided to bet because I think his most likely holding is just a J, and he could possibly talk himself into calling. Either way, this seemed kinda thin and I'm not sure how good/standard it is. Thoughts?

Re: FTP 2.5/5 Thin river value bet with KK
I don't care what two cards I'm holding, I shove vs. a $190 bet 100% of the time.
Just me or do we see some sort of J here a lot? AJ or J flush is my chief concern though TP+FD probably raises somewhere? I'm with BW...check and see what happens. - C - |

Re: FTP 2.5/5 Thin river value bet with KK
why would Jx shove rather than call?

Re: FTP 2.5/5 Thin river value bet with KK
I can't see villain no matter how donkish calling a bet after we bet all 3 streets with this particular river and we take the pot down. Chances are given the description villain is probably calling down light anyway, and if he doesn't have AJ, or another A that made 2 pair or spades he's not calling. I prefer a c/f to a value bet here. But I'm obviously not folding here every time, it depends on what kind of bet he makes.
