Villain is 25/18/8.0 after 60 hands.

Is this a standard calldown, unless the board gets really ugly? Is this river fold good? Should I raise the flop?

I figured calling down was better than raising at any point, playing this as WA/WB. Let him keep bluffing with overcards, or lose the least to an overpair, etc.

The only advantage I can see to raising the flop, is to possibly get him to fold his overcards, since he probably has at least 6 outs against me if I do indeed have the best hand.

Anyway, just wondering if I played this semi-normal, totally standard, or totally botched it.

Thanks!

If you're ahead, you're not way ahead.

You're absolutely right. I didn't mean to imply that I AM WA/WB, just that I was playing it in a similar fashion.

I would play it this way or raise the flop. Like you said, you might be able to get him to fold overs, but only on the turn, he is definitely peeling one. Some players 3 bet liberally in this spot to pick up some fold equity on the flop. Its not a bad play, but can he do this?
