    Default Calling river overbets

    Does this look like a full house, a str8, a 2, or a missed flush? The more I look at the HH the more it looks like a missed flush? Wouldn't a set/house have raised me somewhere?
    FWIW, villain is loose aggressive(playing half his hands), but has only been sitting for 2 orbits. He does not seem very good. He already doubled up with QJ on a rivered straight, where he pushed $9 into a $2 pot. The board was paired and trip K's called him.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($17.35)
    CO ($10)
    Button ($4.80)
    SB ($9.90)
    BB ($3.40)
    UTG ($20.80)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with A, A. CO posts a blind of $0.10.
    UTG calls $0.10, Hero raises to $0.6, 4 folds, UTG calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($1.45) 2, K, 9 (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $1.4, UTG calls $1.40.

    Turn: ($4.25) T (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $3.5, UTG calls $3.50.

    River: ($11.25) 2 (2 players)
    UTG bets $15.30 and is all-in, Hero ??

    Bah, I'd hate playing these limits again, he could have anything. Don't count on him raising a set because he should. Also I didn't see people pushing a lot of missed draws on these limits, they are generally of the loose passive/overbet nutz type.

    I'd probably fold, also this is almost 200BB deep. Pick another spot?

    I call, he can't possibly think you have AA and no real draw on the river hit. you beat a shitload.

    Hero's line certainly looks a lot like AK wich is basicly the same as AA, except for KT,K9.

    Anything I can do differently to avoid the tough river decision? He is pushing in the face of my aggression, although I don't know if he is even smart enough to read the hand.
    I thought it was a QJ-str8. I guess it could be a wacky 2 pair hand that the 2 just counterfeited for me. I guess should have called.

    FOLD and it's not even close at these limits.


    Edit: I wish I hadn't lost my 10k hands at $10NL from my PT database or I would show you how many times this is a set.

    I've been donking around at 10NL and 25NL lately and playing 70% VPIP because Genitruc told me it would be a good way to improve my post-flop play. Anyway, I've stacked quite a few people who open-shoved the river with just top pair.

    If the river didn't pair the deuce I would fold, but since it did it's an easy call.

    With your read I call.

    Against most 10NL players its an easy fold.
    gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

    I didn't notice the river deuce pairing the board which makes this a slightly tougher decision. Still, I have to teach myself to fold to these after calling the first few.
