Default 3/6 Deeeep top two vs Twin-Caracas rivershove

Twin and me have been lagbattling each other in big pots. I won a big pot from him earlier when he c/r me big on AsKc5s and pushed 2x pot on the turn. I called him with Ad7h he mucked K2hh. Also i won a PF allin with AK vs AQ, and he won one with AA vs my AKs. I am a few buyins up on him while playing on several tables.

Do I call his riverpush?

thx - Marnix

maybe i'm an idiot, but i don't see why you're betting this river if you're planning on folding to a raise. it seems like you allow yourself to be bluff-raised off your hand. why'd you check the turn? was it to checkraise a seemingly floatish bet?

he prob thinks it's a split pot, a rule a lot of people use is when you think it's a split pot, reraise and try to get the other guy off his hand.

Twin was the nicest person that I met in my trips to vegas. He is a geniune stand up guy who I would actually consider a friend in the poker scene. Most of the pro poker players I met were self centered money driven egomaniacs. When twin is playing his best poker he is quite good, but unfortunatly he enjoys gambling and will make -EV decisions because he is in the mood to gamble, as is evident from the second posters link. Twin has a larger bankroll than 99% on this forum, but realized that he wasn't playing his best and I suspect this is why he is playing 3/6 to rebuild his confidence.

As to the orginal hand I would fold to his river shove and I like the turn check.
