    Default Rivered nuts deep.

    Villain is a solid tag 23/20 or something. We've been tangling on two tables, he's stacked me twice on another one. In one of the pots i made a weakish call, and he probably doesn't respect my game. I've threebet him a few times since we've been this deep, i elected to call this time because my hands so awesome that i wanted to slowplay.

    Check behind to see if you can get Ivey's head to asplode.

    In all seriousness.. I'd prob bet 255 here. Love the flop raise to build a pot with your decent draw, turn bet is pretty standard.. prob 255 here and expect a call.

    I would bet pot. He prlly folds to a push and may call a reasonable size bet here with top two or the straight draw.

    Isn't this really standard like 2/3 pot-ish? Btw calling river with straight draw, weird. Oh and I'm also still laughing cuz of Ivey's disbelief faces

    This is so player dependent. Your turn bet disguises ur hand a lot imo, though it is definitely good when you are this deep.

    Given your turn bet I probably bet at least full pot, maybe an overbet shove. QT smaller flush and KK all pay you off probably, as I assume you have a sicknasty image. I personally just shove almost always if I make the absolute nuts in spots like these, specially when my hand is semi-disguised as you lose a huuuge amnt of value when he has one of the hands I mentioned above and he may even make a hero call with 2pair or AA.

    LOL I doubt the guy would call down a shove for a 300BB stack and let it go down the drain. I think value bet is fine here, 250 to 300.

    Bet 1/2 pot and hope he raises you with the lower flush.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    If he doesn't respect your play I would shove.
