Here is another one. I thought all I beat was a busted draw, but I had the nut draw. You never know though, sometimes I take the same line with an ace, and the guy shows me 55 that he decided to bet on the river. I thought it was necessary to keep betting until the river with as strong a hand as I had. Should I be calling this river?

Crazy fold on the end. With such a great draw on the flop, wouldn't check-raising be better?

Turn was fine.

River was horrible. If opponent had your hand beat, he would have let you know by now.

edit: come to think of it, river was very bad. check/calling is the best because it gives a chance to let busted draws bluff at you.

Yikes! Absolutely horrible river fold. This is an easy check/call.

You have to call that river if you're checking it. You induced the bluff. Don't you think an A very well would've raised by the river?
