    Default Shania hand, raise the river?

    Reads: Raiser (rezilakos) has range QQ+, AK+, gives up missed overs if not heads-up , can't laydown overpairs, slowplays big sets. Bets 1/3-1/2 pot=overpair. Nitty.

    I make the call, because I want to bust his overpair or push him off missed overcards by floating on him

    Stacks/PFR ratio is about 25.

    2nd opponent (GypsyD) is also tight nit,but I don't know if he calls on a draw.

    Raise the river?

    I think its a pretty easy value raise. If he's a nit you can be pretty sure he has a set/overpair when he calls a psb on this flop. Since he has to have paired cards, theres no way he can have a flush on the river. Try to get all in.

    Yeah, thx Renton, that's what I was thinking about but pussied out because it's flush not straight and I didn't know if he chases the same flush or slowplays set. After calling my PSB and checking the turn, then betting flushed board so I just called expecting set or better flush. His trickiness costed him only a blocking bet it should cost him a stack. Yeah, I should've raise it.

    Yea, I agree that this is a simple raise on the river.

    On a sidenote though, what does this have to do with metagame?
