Is this always a boat line?

    Default Is this always a boat line?

    Villain is tight aggressive and hasn't shown down many hands. Should I have folded on the turn? As played, is this a standard river fold?

    Fold to his turn minraise. This is a favorite line of poor / mediocre players and almost always indicates a strong hand.

    After river you are behind everything he would push. I'd say it is safe to fold the river. That K is the action card. It puts a flush and your 2pair in play. I can't tell you how much money I make with broadway straights because people can't lay down their top 2 pair that was made by the same card that made my straight.
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.
