This is what bothers me. Would villain (the 2.85 river bettor) be raising on the turn with a T? if so, i know my action is a call. If not, and he is holding an ace, is it a raise?

I know that he'd only be calling with a better hand, or raising with the goods.

vp$Ip 40%, pfa 2.5, raise pre of 15%, 45 hands.

It's hard to tell who's who here, but this is not a good slowplaying hand. There's 80 cents on the (8-way!!) flop, bet at least that much.

On the turn, betting 1/3 of pot is begging to get raised by a player like this.

This is definately a call and NEVER a raise.
