    Default Fancy Play Syndrome

    Villian is 21/18, but only over 70 hands. I know preflop sucks, but whatever. I think the way I played it my hand looks like a weak pair trying to showdown cheap, so I think there's almost no way he gives me credit for a flush or FH, so I think he value bets all overpairs on the river.

    Villian is 21/16 over 100 hands. Seems like an average tag. He's on a another one of my tables, but I haven't been paying too much attention to how he plays.

    Hand#1 bet river I think he checks behind 90% of the time. I would probably have c/r the turn because he might commit himself with AsAh or something. On Hand#2 you have to bet the turn. There's no sense in being deceptive anymore. The pot is huge and you might as well just take it down. Hopefully he has QQ or JJ and stack him. If he's got KK he's checking behind again. What's your plan if a ten falls on the river cause you gave him another free card?
