    Default Is this an easy/standard river fold?...

    -Villain is kinda fishy 28/8/2.3 but haven't played with him much today at all. This is like his first hand at the table and he hasn't done anything of note yet


    Cryptologic
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $2/$5
    6 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    Hero: $654
    UTG+1: $614.10
    CO: $329
    Button: $493
    SB: $732.36
    BB: $598.80

    Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG with
    Hero raises to $20, 3 folds, SB calls, BB calls.

    Flop: ($60, 3 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $40, SB calls, BB calls.

    Turn: ($180, 3 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $130, SB folds, BB calls.

    River: ($440, 2 players)
    BB is all-in $408.8, Hero ??

    Yea it looks like a pretty easy fold. A 7 is pretty unlikely but JQ is just about the only hand that makes sense. Hes shoving before you get a chance to show weakness so it doesn't look like a good spot to bluff and there arent many other missed draws he can have here. Hes also reasonably passive so yea, Instafold.
    gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

    gross. i think you have to fold this with villain being fairly passive.

    Yah it was pretty insta, which made me feel more like calling.

    I feel like a rivered straight might not want to shove and instead bet a little smaller to get value from a worse hand. So this logic makes me want to call.

    I feel like a rivered QJ WOULD shove to get value out of someone with a 7, so this makes me want to fold.

    Hmmm.. maybe this spot is just marginal either way.
