Flop: (12.5 SBs) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
The Dude bets, Hijack calls, CO raises. The Dude 3bets, Hijack insta-calls, CO calls.

Turn: (10.5 BBs) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
The Dude bets, Hijack and CO both call w/o hesitation.

River: (13.5 BBs) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

It's too big to fold and obviously you aren't going to raise. Call and muck your hand.

I could see either bet/3betting the flop, as you did, or pulling a stop & go when the turn blanks.

I have to think that bet/fold is a better river option than check/overcall. Although if you're not comfortable folding to a raise (I assume that's the case here)....meh, I still think it's a bet/fold, maybe bet/call if one of them folds.

The river is a tough spot. Even though the pot is quite large, I think you should check/call one player back to you but check/fold if you are an overcaller.

You cant play this much better from the sb. I might check raise the flop to define my hand a little better (since CO 3bet he s likely to bet) and maybe you lose Hijack if he doesnt have a club. Other than that its cool, I think the pot is too big for a bet/fold on the river so a check/call is ok.

I can't conceive of any hand that HJ would play this way that you are ahead of. The overcall makes it even worse. Even in a big pot like this, I have no problem folding.

I fold. I just can't imagine the jack being good here 1-15. Not with a bet and a call.

You dont think there is a 10% chance (only needs to be 6% to make calling a neutral ev play) hero is up against red aces in the co and say ThTc for the hijack?

I cant fold here.

If you're thinking of calling this river, I'd have rather bet out and folded to a raise. Unlikely anyone would be raising with a weaker hand in that spot especially after all the power you've shown the whole way.

A bet and a caller? That's a tough overcall given all that they've withstood to get this far.

But then, the 'no reads' light is on...

Seems like a fold to me, but it's not a particularly easy one.
