    Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.10/$0.25 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter)

    SB: $27.00
    BB: $14.75
    UTG: $7.25
    MP: $20.65
    Hero (CO): $28.55
    BTN: $19.80

    Preflop: Hero is dealt A Q (6 Players)
    UTG calls $0.25, MP folds, Hero raises to $1.25, BTN folds, SB calls $1.15, BB calls $1.00, UTG calls $1.00

    Flop: ($5) J 4 7 (4 Players)
    SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks

    Turn: ($5) Q (4 Players)
    SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $3.25, SB folds, BB calls $3.25, UTG folds

    River: ($11.50) A (2 Players)
    BB bets all-in for $10.25, Hero?

    Is this a call? River sets up just under a pot size all-in from villain. The only read I have is that this player has been playing very passive and folds a lot. I do not have any stats on him.

    Passive, as calls anything connected or suited off the BB. Call and be prepered to be shown J5 spades.

    guys, the villain is REALLY PASSIVE, and folds A LOT.

    looks like a flush if he's passive...A7hh or A4hh is the only thing u beat,

    and yes i usually always call this against most people, but if u have a read on a guy u dont need to always spew chips

    i was just wondering how you knew he calls anything connected or suited in the BB.
    he could have a lot of hands here.

    Sorry I 've had a coupla beers. That was a question.
    Should read -"passive, as in calls anything connected or suited off the BB?"

    Yep, he could have a lot of hands, but this looks like a flush, or a badly played set trying to get some value. Why give free cards, then bet this river?

    There are many players who ignore the odds and call the BB, then fold if they miss, which is why I put him on J5/56. He must hit something on the flop, still likes the turn, but not enough to raise at any point. What do we beat?

    I think a lot of the time this is a lower two pair made with the ace on the river.
    Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

    Well I wouldnt expect a bluff here that often but he could certainly have a worse made hand and a missed draw will sometimes bluff. I think you have ALOT more than the 33% equity you need here.
