I almost timed out on the river in hand 1 deciding whether to value-bet or not.
What do you do on the river in hand 2 based on the action in hand 1 (i.e. villain’s passive play OOP)? The paradox is villain coming out and firing OOP in hand 2 vs his check-calling a strong hand in hand 1. Does this mean I put him on a weaker or a stronger hand? Does it tell me he likes his hand MORE or LESS? I felt a huge donkish urge to minraise the river in hand 2 FWIW.
