    Default Thin river shove, who likes it?

    Villain is a very good and solid high stakes HU reg who I'm playing for fun. He is running 50/40/3.1. My stats are 60/50/3.8.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (2 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($51.25)
    Hero ($98.25)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 7, 9.
    Hero raises to $2, BB raises to $7, Hero calls $5.

    Flop: ($14) 7, 2, J (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks.

    Turn: ($14) 2 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $10, BB calls $10.

    River: ($34) 6 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $81.25 (All-In)... ($34.25 for villain to call)

    Quite like this. His line does look a little like 88,99,1010 - the only hands this shove has any point against, but to be honest I think we're ahead like 70% of the time here he most likely has 44 or something.

    Still i can't see him showing up with an overpair, set or flush so fuck it if we're sure he wont make an amazing call with a mid pair this is kinda infallable.

    I'm fully expecting him to call with any pair here including 44. I bet this for value (with bluff timings), and to make it harder for him to make thin calls, and to throw him off his A-game if he calls with ace high.
