When the opponent blocks the river: 50NL
Villain is 22/5/2-ish over 100 hands. So I should've bet more on the flop, but my question is in a spot like this, where villain makes what looks for all the world to be a blocking bet because he wants to see the showdown, is there any value in shoving?

Re: When the opponent blocks the river: 50NL
This is a terrible spot to shove.
If his bet really is just a block, you are almost always winning the showdown anyway. If he has you beat, he is calling. So the idea is to get a call from worse hands b/c they put you on a bluff, right? Otherwise, I can't conceive of any reason to shove. This board is scary enough that unless you have lots of history with villain he is folding any 2pair or less pretty much always.

Re: When the opponent blocks the river: 50NL
I flat called and he showed KK. I felt like I'd missed value, but I guess that was due to my poor flop bet and the unfortunate river card. Thanks guys.

Re: When the opponent blocks the river: 50NL
given his line I doubt he's calling a raise on the river.
