I'm running fairly tight upon my poker return. 18/11 or so. Reasonable player, 30/20. Whats the line on the river here. He keeps three betting me, which makes me want to re-evaluate not 4-betting.

what were the stacks like? a river c/c might be sexy here it looks like he doesn't have much, but might bluff on the end. i wouldn't c/r cause he's not calling w/ air so i c/c cause he's dumping to a bet w/ air but might bluff. maaaybe he makes a call with like qj that he chks down on the end but it can't be a hand like q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]j[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] cause he's c-c-betting the turn a lot with the redraw, so c/c looks good.
i'm beginning to think 4betting here should be mandatory against a thinking light threebettor. a lot of times we just call here we whiff the flop and end up c/fing unless we make a move oop which can get spewy. if we fourbet he calls and we c-bet a whiffed flop he's gotta lay down unless he hits it pretty hard or slowplayed something. pf w/ ak against a nonthinking light threebettor i might just call and c/r if i hit the flop or c/f if i don't. i find it hard to play against people who don't think so i use caution as the better side of valor holla. |

I don't know what the stack sizes are, but you might be able to induce a bluff here if your villian is fairly aggressive. Thats what I would do as betting and having the villian stick in a big raise would be sucky. If you bet and he raised you, you might be priced in with your hand.
I think though you can induce a bluff and make a profitable call. If he keeps three betting you and has a 20% raise PF, then his range is probably fairly wide, especially when he is in position. The could of been a standard C-Bet for him on the flop and when you called he kind of shut down. Checking river would give him the opportunity to bluff at you with a worse hand. Betting the river gets him to fold a worse hand or raise you with a better hand (I say his raise would be better because the odds he would offer you with a raise probably has no fold equity and wouldn't be able to serve as a bluff). |

Against this villian w/ AK OOP I 4-bet/push PF depending on stack sizes.
As played I think c/r'ing the flop would be OK, I probably bet the river for about $25 or push depending on stack sizes. After calling the flop bet I don't mind checking the turn and trying to induce a bluff, you could also try this on the river if you think his hand is weak and checking the river will likely induce a bluff. |
