    Villian is 25/2.5/.60 over 40 hands.

    How do you like my play up to the river, and do you make the river call and why?

    I probably play it the same and talk myself into paying off the flush since I possibly induced a bluff by checking the turn.

    From villains perspective, our line looks just like what we'd do with two overs and the typical villain would be betting with some hands we beat and some bluffs.

    bet something on the turn, opp will either declare his hand there or donk into you on the river with the flush/boat/trips where you fold easily, as if opp calls a turn bet you arent calling river anyway.
    I dont always like to check this turn fwiw.

    I play this hand the same way. Check through the turn for pot control, and I call any reasonable bet on the river all day. 25 is reasonable, so I'm almost always calling here, simply cause my check probably induced a bet.
