JJ, Tight Spot

[GTSamIAm]

This guy is fairly loose and aggressive. He'll bluff with bad hands occasionally. I'm not sure if he raises draws or not, but it's likely that he does. He tends to call down bad hands also. His river call surprised me, I thought he would raise or fold.

This does look like a tight spot. I don't think the river bet is for value, even against a loose opponent. You're seldomly getting called when you're ahead.

I do like the flop three-bet and turn bet.

The river was a bluff in a big pot. But when he calls, there's nothing I can beat unless he's a whale. When he calls the turn, maybe the river bluff is a bad idea. Isn't there a rule about always betting a river four flush heads-up out of position? On second thought, I don't think it works here.

I think the river is a clear c/c

the rest is standard
