2/5 deep - warning - potential straight flush folded inside

-villain in this hand is nothing too special, just a standard taggish type player who I've played with a few times before but he's not a regular
-we haven't had that many hands together, but he runs 23/18/3.08
-river is a mandatory c/r obviously, but I'm not sure on how nitty I'm being pondering a river fold here

ummmmmm, lol?

Nit.

lol ok but lets be serious for a second

-QQ,JJ,TT all bet the flop. So he rarely has these hands by the river, so he rarely has a boat on the river except for 9T or J9. Both of which might also bet flop sometimes
-He's rarely shoving Ah here, not just because there are two obvious straight flushes out but also because the board is paired

So.. he rarely has a boat... and he rarely shoves Ah... maybe I'm just losing it?...

The more I look at this the more I think it might be a fold I don't think Ah's are shoving this river for value and I doubt many flopped sets are checking back this flop, leaving T9/J9/Q9/99 that might be shoving this river for value.



edit: you beat me to it, and I feel you

I don't play this high and it sure does look like Kh but I cant fold a straight flush. I mean the chances that he misread the board and doesn't realize 4 card sf draw is there and is shoving a boat or Ah is enough to make this a call for me and then curse the gods when he indeed has the King. Or he could think your spazzing with Ah and he has a boat IDK. That's how I justify my bad calls prob .

fuck a duck

Don't you think he bets the Kh on the flop?

Edit: Unless he flopped the royal?

thread delivers

b\c river instead for sanity value

he has a royal

No BBJ for you!!!

serious reply:

why c/r the river, why no b/c line?

Yaah I think at the time I thought more hands would value bet and then call, than would raise a lead on the river.

I think Ah might sometimes b/c, but definitely not raise a lead often I don't think.

I think boats will b/c and also probably raise leads reasonably often.

So it's pretty close. If he's ever bluffing this river, then c/r is better obviously. If not, then its probably close.

Is there a BBJ?

for BBJ you have to use both hole cards

T9 and 99 seem to fit if he misread the board.

Why not just bet/call the river for value? Sucks to put in so much money on the river deep without the nuts.

I'd fold.
Be super cool if he bluffed it.

Well I still think c/r river is better than leading the river, just because there are sooo few hands that I can imagine leading this river, after the flop and turn played out this way.

I'll have to think about it more, as to which is better. I just think his b/c range is wider than his river raising range, with worse hands than mine.

And let's get real, I didn't fold this river! LDO But I tanked, and if I had timebank on my site, I think I would have thought about it more and folded. But alas... time crunch.. must call with straight flush. KsKh ftw.... obviously.

Good job this is a fold
