boat...but am I good?

Villian (button) is aggresive when he hits the board. It would not be out of line for him to pull the flop move with TPTK. Critique on all streats but mainly wondering about the river move.

Hero: Push...or do I expect him to have a better boat now?
I have 100xbb left and he has me covered.

bet the pot, if he goes over i probably call anyways...putting him on k-q or a-q. the raise on the flop tells me he doesn't have q-j, and the call on the turn tells me he doesn't have trip 7's.

ok edit...i definately call and am hoping he pushes over the top, and if i think he calls a push i push...because you almost definately have the best hand.

I'm thinking your boat is good here about 90% of the time. Bet the pot and see what happens.

If one excludes my read totally and we make this a typical opponent that hasn’t entered our radar, do we think we are good on the river here often enough for a big value bet?

My feeling was that he definitely had a queen and given that he just improved he would definitely call a push. Hence I pushed.

FWIW, This is not set over set.

he called your reraise so im guessing at set/two pair/ perhasp only top pair or even a straight draw
Id half pot this expecting to get called, i dont see a way to fold if opp has anything that beast us.
I think a half pot gets called by a lot

He called a big reraise to his reraise on that flop with QJ and he's calling you a fish? LOL.

he called a thre bet with tp average kicker
Good luck to that 'shark'

he probably didn't understand that you also had a boat, albeit a lower one. I can just hear him: "LOL donk, thinking your 3 fours are good with two queens on the board."
