6 folds, Button calls t100 (pot was t150), SB folds, Hero checks.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t250, 2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets t100, Hero calls t100 (pot was t350).

Turn: J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (t450, 2 players)
Hero checks, Button checks.

River: 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (t450, 2 players)
Hero bets t350, Button raises to t700, Hero calls t350

Villain is in many pots (VP$IP 39).
His button-openlimp can mean almost anything IMO. One pretty card may be enough. Weak ace is a possibility at this point.
That is the reason I did not bet the turn. Nut sure if he can lay down a weak ace.

Def surprising min-raise on the river. I was sure he would have bet the turn with a FD. Could not really put him on a hand here. Can you? Do you call?

Call at least, shoving can't be that bad either.

I play it the same way

Just call the river.

I usually lead the turn there too, as it frequently takes down the pot against a non-A.

Mondo sry bout the late reply. Given those stats I think villian would have raised Pre if he had the K/Qd suited or any pair that has just boated up. Your flop call is meh, while you are probably ahead you need a read that villian will give up on the pot on a later street.
