    Default Fish bets 4-straight river, board's paired, fold the idiot end?

    No history at all with villain, but action in hand strongly suggests a fish.

    Can't really see cbetting this flop - hits a limpcall range really hard, but then the turn looks like pretty thick value. He can have so much 2-pair, sets etc. here that'll call turn and probably river.

    When he donks the river though, you've got to think his range for checking the flop is so wide, he can have basically anything here.

    I don't mind folding, I don't mind calling. I'm probably not calling a bigger bet, especially since I don't like the board pairing on the river since he can have so much 78/89/66/77/99.

    Fish can also be stabby though, in the wierdest spots, like he can easily stab with a busted flush here.

    He can also be value betting AA/KK/QQ.

    Any thoughts?
