    Default How bad is this River shove? 100NL

    Villain is 20/16/3.2 over 250+ hands. I haven't seen him do anything too crazy and haven't seen him make any moves. Only hand I can remember against him was when I PFR IP, cbet flop, check check turn, and he check called my river bet with AJ midpair on the flop.

    I put him on like AJ/KJ or something and thought there is a good chance he might actually call with those hands.

    What's PSB? It's a good shove, I think you have the best hand.

    - bet bigger on the flop (i like between $5 to $6)
    - as played I'd prob fold to the flop raise given your read, plus you're not getting a great price to continue imo.

    You're thinking about poker wrong if you want to know the outcome of the hand.

    I'd bet a little bit more on flop but think your size is alright. This seems good as played, can we really b/f an amount? Plus this looks semibluffy. His turn bet scares me though betting so small. He seems content with his hand but I could be thinking too deeply plus others may think if he's more content he'd bet more but meh.

    i didnt see that we got raise, i thought we were the one doing the raising on the flop. I probably fold to the flop c/r but as played I think its good. He doesn't have a full house here that often.

    You can't be serious, we have 8 clean outs to the nuts, we only need to make an average of $24 more when we hit the turn for calling the c/r to be profitable.

    There's a decent chance he also has trips with a hand like KT QT 8T or 7T and you beat most of those so I like the shove.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    I'd float the flop with KT let alone QT

    of course the likelihood that I cbet KT here is small (my cbet% is significantly smaller than most)

    I like the flop bet size fwiw, as long as you don't use that same size for wetter flops. Somehow I get the feeling he's not calling a push. There's not busted draws for you to rep, a push is huge strength.

    flop is an obvious call and river is an obvious bet with shove probably being suboptimal.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    This.

    Turn call is really marginal because most of your outs are dirty or in plain sight.

    How come? What would've been a better bet size and why?

    Would you have called or let it go on the turn?
