Check shove to avoid a split
I started playing FR awhile back for like a week for the first time, then quit.
Now I'm trying it out again, mixing some 100 and 200 to get used to the differences from 6m, though this hand could easily be 6m

Based on his bet sizing I don't think he almost ever has a FH or flush. Looks like a clueless valuebet from an ace. Since we split with him, why not shove?
I've been looking to find ways to avoid splits when I'm pretty sure we're going to. Villain's bet sizing in these spots is usually a huge tell.
I don't like shoving the river open because I'm called by a made flush, which I don't think this player raises on turn. I also gain any value bet from an ace with a c/rai.
this really only works vs. weak or villains who are poor players
