river play?

[bode]

No stats, no reads. I raise this some against limpers, but ive been trying to cut out some of these type hands (A8-T, unsuited connectors, 1 gappers, etc) because im losing with them long term.

Whats my river play here? Comments on all streets welc0me.

i hate your flop raise (after calling). it gives your hand away and SB just goes into call down mode, probably a weak ace. as played, vbet around $50-60.

I think you played it fine. Now i would say vbet but you only have like 60 left so i probably just shove.

yeah, i have $65ish left on the river.

looks like a weaker 2p, push river

Could be a weaker 2 pair but I often see a badly played 66 or 89 here as well. Call me a nit but I might check behind here.

your line looks scary to A-Q/A-K, and you probably lost UTG because of that. If you raise i think UTG will at least call the flop, at which point you could check turn/check raise a safe river (i would be very surprised if villain didn't VB TPGK/TK if checked to twice). This line maximizes value against A-Q/A-K.

But in this case the SB would have at least called your raise, so i think if he just called and checked the turn, you should bet strong (since he probably has two pair - and will pay off two streets with the former). And make a big river bet on a non 6 river.

If the SB had reraised to $20, i would call and get it in on the turn.


And then, as played i think shoving the river is by far the best play. T-6/A-6 make up way more of villain's range than 6-6. I don't expect 9-8 to call the large flop reraise.

all money to middle asap

so i pushed, ldo. villain flipped 66, again, ldo. i dont know, something about his line screamed set or 6's or 10's even after flat calling the turn bet but i think given his range pushing the river is correct and he shows up with a horribly played AK/AQ often.
