I really don't like the turn check. As played, I'm calling the river, even though the .75 AF does scare me a little. You might even think about open pushing river against this type of guy.

Why did you check the turn?

His AF sucks, but I'd still call the river.

no way im folding

Sometimes I like to check here to induce a bluff because I look like AK and it looks like I'm just giving up on the pot. I was obviously going for a c/r, but that probably was a poor line to take against somebody with a .75 AF.

turn check is bizzare, but I think it made you a bunch of money when he hit a worse boat.
If you had bet the turn, villian would (correctly) put you on an overpair (which is what I assume he has... not a 5!) . I guess you have to pay a wierd 56/67 hand or 88.

i assume you checked to induce the bluff so call.
Betting the turn here lets a lot of second best hands from pasives get away but will also often encourage more aggro players to raise against a hand that cant take a raise really in compariosn to the board.
he bluffed so call and pay his 5 (if he really has it)

As stated the turn check is bad. I only do this if I have a specific read that someone floats alot.

As played call -- "OMG OMG I have a FH OMG!!!!1111"

Yeah vs this opponent I hate my turn check, it's best to just value bet this guy to death. Anyways, I called instantly when he shoved. He didn't have a 5, but 88 was good. :(

I love your turn check since usually you get a bet out of it, but it didn't work this time. (damn!) River is an all-in against this player. Your boat >>> his boat.
