    Default A river call

    Villain is 45/20 and semi aggressive postflop. I'm playing 24/23 after 47 hands and this is the 3rd time I've 3-bet with him in the pot preflop. He's called everytime. I thought about pushing the turn but I have the King of hearts and thought it would be a mistake because I'll never fold better and always fold worse so I check and my plan is to call the river. I followed through with my plan but was this a good plan/call?

    ya close spot...but go with your read. you only beat some random oop float with a gut shot or lower pair, but sounds like he's capable of that.

    Tough spot, i think i fold this river though. I can easily see him holding ace rag and the push makes me think flush. For some reason a lot of donks love to shove the nuts on the river.

    this is a fold. the turn completes flush draws and there is an ace. considering the board I don't see a hand that makes this bet that you beat.

    I fold, I don't think your opponent has the balls to bluff you, and a bluff is all you beat.
