    Default Time for a hero call? AA 100NL

    Villain is 14/10/1.4 over folds to 3B: 57% over 987 hands. No reads.

    Only reason I checked turn is because I wanted C/shove. I wanted to give him a chance to bluff at the pot with worse hands and payoff if he has AJ/AT or quads. When he checked behind on turn, I wouldn't have minded a cheap showdown and can C/C a medium sized bet. How is my turn thinking? Spewy? Whats standard on river?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (5 handed) -

    UTG ($106.30)
    MP ($106.05)
    Button ($100)
    Hero (SB) ($249.40)
    BB ($100)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with ,
    2 folds, Button bets $3, Hero raises to $11, 1 fold, Button calls $8

    Flop: ($23) , , (2 players)
    Hero bets $18, Button calls $18

    Turn: ($59) (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button checks

    River: ($59) (2 players)
    Hero checks, [color=#CC3333]Button bets $55

    Steal rate? If it's low, I can see him value betting QQ here. If it's high I just let him have it tbh.

    I think you have the wrong idea about the turn. Check calling is much better than c/s the turn. As far as whether we should call here, c/f turn, or fold here... It's really tough to say. I'd probably go with a fold i kinda doubt he's vbetting worse or bluffing.

    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.

    his 3b flatting range is what
    99-JJ A10s-Aqs, AJo-Aqo, KJs+ Kqo
    assuming he'd 4bet QQ+ and AK

    stoving gives us 80% win with that range

    at the widest giving him J10s, Q10s, QJo, K10s, KJo we are still 56%, and thats 9% of hands and I think his flatting range is probably only like 5%


    I can't come up with many 10x combos a nit would have there. and his J combos are discounted considering we hold two of the aces.

    getting 2-1, are you folding here guys because of his bet sizing?
    cuz I can see KQ, 88,99 playing the same

    Isnt this a clear bet on the river? If I check river, its definitely not to fold.

    This looks like it is KQ/89/QQ/KK a lot. Thats a bet thats not exactly looking for a call also.

    I payy hem hees moneeyy.

    For calling I don't much like his pot sized river bet. Sure that could be a sign that it's bluffy, but I'd need history, more often it's a hand.

    I also don't like the flat call on the flop. Wouldn't the hands you beat, except for maybe Jack, raise?

    I think folding is the correct play.

    I also don't mind check-calling a reasonable bet here; but think this river bet is too big to call, and not likely enough to be bluffy.
