    Default turned 2pr on 4 straight board

    hadn't been to the table very long, less than 20 hands. only played this guy a few times before but I'm not too worried about his play overall. he'd lost $5k in last 500 hands, 35/20.

    Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    CO ($432)
    Button ($1603)
    SB ($1183)
    BB ($603)
    UTG ($854.75)
    Hero ($995)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with 5, 6.
    1 fold, Hero raises to $35, 1 fold, Button calls $35, 2 folds.

    Flop: ($85) 7, 4, 5 (2 players)
    Hero bets $60, Button calls $60.

    Turn: ($205) 6 (2 players)
    Hero bets $205, Button calls $205.

    River: ($615) J (2 players)
    Hero bets $695 (All-In)

    he's got me covered by a mile.

    btw aren't you only getting called by hands that beat you there? He must be real donkish to call that with worse hands than yours..

    What's his range? Reads would *really* help here...Sucks you don't have more hands on him.

    Worse hands are not going to call, only better hands will....but that's okay sometimes. You pushing doesn't give him the opportunity to put you to the test with air, you know?

    I kind of like it.

    If you're content on putting your stack in here then check/call is clearly a better option. If you're getting all of your chips in you might as well catch a bluff sometimes.

    his range is wider than mine, plays a lot of flops. he actually likes to bet more as the hand progresses i've noticed. that is, he calls less from PF to river. PF aggro he is just over 1.0 AF and on river he's like 3.5 AF.
