Default hes betting this so he can fold to a raise right?

i have no read or stats on him (my pokerace isnt working) but im pretty sure he has a set or aces


up. he left himself with 200 behind. i folded because i didn't know if he was good enough to realize i'd almost never check the flop with a flush draw. but it really looks like he bet the amount that'll let him get away if i shove, and from his perspective, since i called the turn, i shouldn't have a hand worth bluffing with.

sorry for raw hh, my internet is screwy and the converter isnt working for me

note that he had less than $400 to start the hand so there's a better than average chance that he's bad. and his screenname suggests he might have downs syndrome

No one is folding 2p+ on that river after they bet so weak (they will always tell themselves their small bet caused you to bluff or w/e), so if its 2p you are putting him on then fold. And obviously they arent folding AAA...

Turn call seems bad though if you are putting him on 2pair. Were you calling on a blank?

If he's bad, he doesn't know yet what to do if raised.

i mightve called if he shoved ro potted the river. his bet just screamed to me I HAVE A SET PLS DONT RAISE ME. his turn c/r could easily be to see if im interested in the pot, and i'm pretty good reading bet sizes so i think i can play the river pretty well

i agree, but the question is does he talk himself into calling, or does he decide i have to have a flush?
