10/20 LO8 Tricky Spot with Strong High
Villain plays well doesnt make very many mistakes and mixes up his play, I have a long history playing him, he picks good spots to bluff and plays well preflop and postflop, he rarely 3bets and usually doesnt do it with traditional hands like A2 or AAxx.
Hero raises K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] OTB Villain calls Flop comes A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Villain bets, Hero raises, Villain calls Turn comes 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Villain bets, Hero calls River comes 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Villain bets, Hero raises?

Absolutely, you have the second nuts for high and he doesn't have aces. there's always a chance he doesn't have a low and call with aces up.

Raise. Your high will be good 95% of the time. Maybe more. If he flips over Aces, then "NH sir"

Re: 10/20 LO8 Tricky Spot with Strong High
I'd raise the turn here and call down if 3-bet. It looks like he has a low when he bets out, but not always, as he may be doing something different. The river is not a great card for you unless he has precisely 23 or 24 and no high at all. he will call and split with you with any 2 low cards. It looks like your freerolling with the river raise, and thats o.k., but again, I'd raise the turn

And on river why not, looks like we have nothing to lose.

(If we didn't have the flush draw it would be different). This, along with the chance we're not facing a made low but something like a smaller set, 2 pair with a straight draw or something else leads me to raise the turn to punish him those times when we're the heavy favorite.
