    Default Call this river push?

    Villain is 37/10/2.57 No river aggression.

    The only big pot I saw him in was with me and another guy where he limped with 34o in LP and I checked BB w/34s (spades) we both flopped the bottom straight with the 3rd guy flopping a set. I turned the flush but check called down. Villain just kept betting and betting whilst I just kept calling. Should have raised and got it all in but I was afraid of higher flush but thats another hand.

    Anyway, when he push the river I found it hard to believe he had an ace but more like a set or a weird straight hand. What do you think? Fold this river push or call the donk down?

    ...fold you have one pair and he has better than one pair

    You must have had a reason to think he was full of crap to call the turn so stick with your read I guess...personally I would fold the turn against this player.

    I think a fold vs this type of player will save you money in this situation in the long run. I'd actually just fold the turn if I were in your spot.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for the comments. Much appreciated.

    FWIW I did fold the river but I am curious to a couple of you saying you fold to the turn min-raise. Would AK/AQ/AJ and possibly even a lower ace, considering he is quite loose pre-flop, not be in his range a lot here? In my mind once he pushed the river these hands were out of his range but on the turn they could still be in his range couldn't they?

    I just feel it is a bit weak to fold to a raise with TPTK at these levels. I have seen AT play like this, but not from this particular player.
