200nl limped pot river straight

I called turn cuz I thought villain was super strong and i had sick implied odds. I thought after board paired on turn I was done w/ the hand, especially when he checks to me (maybe I'm thinking he's thinking too deep) and i interpreted that to mean he wanted me to make my obv draw.

so i make draw on river and he checks again. I really think i missed value by not betting here but felt so strongly that he was strong and didn't want to risk getting checkraised, but after the fact I think he's probably not capable of checkraising river as a bluff. So not sure, maybe I already answered the question.

i obv play bad and think too deeply too often

nah don't beat yourself up but it just seems like without a read that villain is a super tricky deep-thinker u gotta bet

because of the way the action went you kind of have to bet small too unless your image will get you paid here

it's pretty clear what you're thinking here but without a better read value bet the shit out of that river.

you cannot get away with not betting here

$52/fold

Checking the river = no.

b/f is probably best here, but i would b/c in the heat of the moment. i just dont see villain checking the turn and river with a set

There's really nothing wrong with bet/fold here.

Your hand looks somewhat weak and I'd imagine he'd expect you to check through all your marginal hands in this spot, so he may lead a boat on the river here pretty often to get paid something at least.

Holy please bet though.

Oh and raise PF to $10 and isolate! Limping T8s behind is maybe ok (but I'd prob raise that too), but T8o is meh multiway.. so just raise it.

Not to mention one guy is a poster. I raise almost anything resembling a hand here.
