River raiser is 50/4/1.67. However, the caller is none other than ODoyleRulz58. If you don't know him, lets just say he is conservitive. Is this a 3-bet?

I think you can rule out Rulz having you beat. Did the moron in the CO seat hit a bigger straight though? If it was a situation where you could fold to a cap, 3 betting would be nice because you are likely to get 2:1. However a cap from this guy could just mean he doesn't even see a straight is possible.

I take the conservative route and just call.

Ya I thought this hand was really weird. I can say that ODoyle will fold all hands I beat if I 3-bet. I can't help but think calling is weak though.

3bet. 67 bets the flop.
