i think the converter messed up the river action

Bet the flop. I think I like the river raise. Fold to push though.

I don't like the river raise. I just call.

i think betting flop is bad. it would be better if board was like A76 and we had 87, but this is different.

just curious, why is this better?

Converter messed up, opp went allin after I raised the river and I called.

Yeah, betting this flop is kinda bad. There are no real draws out there and I have a high pair so the perils of giving a free card are small. If I bet I'll mostly only get called by better hands and fold out weaker hands that will bet or call a bet on later streets (because I feigned weakness by checking the flop). (note that this is in position, things change slightly when I'm OOP). If I had 87 on a A76 board I would bet instead of checking to protect my hand because giving a free card is much worse here.

And thinking on it, I should probably just call river, his big potsizede river bet is only a pure bluff (that wont call a raise) or a better hand (than my twopair) valuebetting.

For the resultsoriented he had a 55 for a turned set of fives.
