    yeah, bet river. As played I call. We chop a lot, but he could possibly have AQ, or even AcQc (gross). Your check shows so much weakness after betting 2 streets I think we have to call as a really expensive bluff catcher.

    Aren't we a bit to strong to turn our hand into a bluff? What worse hand is calling a push here?

    Yeah I think if you were gonna check it should of been on the turn when you hit the king, I also think your hand is probably good there.
    I would rather have a bottle in front of me then a frontal labotomy

    if we bet 1/2 to 2/3 pot here on the riv, can we fold to a shove? what hand other than AQ would shove? TJ obv shoves.

    really dont' know why you'd check the river here, this card is good for you

    I was planning to check call, hoping that a missed flush draw would try to steal it. The overbet confused me though.

    so the only reason you'd ever fold on a c/c here is by specifically putting him on TJ or set. fairly narrow range.

    id prefer to bet here and take it down a lot, and if i check i think i call most of the time.

    the thing is often we create river spots where we think checking is good to induce bluffs but really the best option with a good hand is to bet an amount where the widest range of hands calls us for max value. this perhaps is a case where we want to bet a lot where we get called by fewer hands but still get paid. ie instead of betting 1/3 pot and getting called 2/3 times we beat near pot and get called 1 in 3 times type thing.

    if u think he's easily capable of bluffing these types of rivers (missed draws etc) you can consider betting real small - get called by fairly weak hands, plus you sometimes induce a raise when he thinks you are weak

    Thanks for the input. I did call and he showed J10 for the nuts.

    I think he either bluffing or he hit the A on the river.if i'am in your position,I would shove all in...

    maybe he had a set on a flop and just called 2 times
