[2NL] BU 3bet v CO - Bluff river or take the showdown
Hi guys,
I'm leaning towards betting (80% pot) since he has loads of weak pocket pairs here and I expect this x-x-x line to be very under protected, like V pretty much never has a hand like 77 here. Argument for just taking SD is, are we really getting a hand like 99 to fold?
GG rush & cash so just go with pool tendencies.
GGPoker, Hold'em No Limit - $0.01/$0.02 - 6 players

River here is the easiest check ever , you practically never fold out better so unless you are trying to get value from AQ/A10 you accomplish 0 betting
By the river this is just a check - The hands you are targeting would likely require 2 streets of betting to make fold.
When the opponent checks three times, they can also be trying to showdown a worse Ace high.
You beat showdown value (AQ) and they won't bluff some hands they should bluff (suited connectors I assume ?) so checking is best I believe.
It would be more of a value bet, but risky vs a passive low-stakes population.

This.
