I value raise like Censored

[C-Dog]

I have to raise this river right?

Villain is 50/9/1 over 30 hands.

I figured the limp/reraise and then cap the turn smelled like a big pair to me and then the board pairs. Should I still raise this and then call the 3 bet.

Yes, raise the river.. And your hand history looks messed up. The flop action doesnt make sense; how did UTG raise the flop w/o a bet in front of him?

Theres a new option on party poker that has a fixed limit spread for 1-2. You can bet 1 or 2 on any street you want.

Sorry but I'm against raising this river. You had the nuts on the flop and turn, but he showed you how much he liked his hand on the turn and all of his likely holdings (except for 89 i guess) either tie you or beat you.

It is 1/2 , but unless you think he had 10,J (in which case he might not even call ur raise unless hes a huge donk), all of the other hands improved to beat you.

You might have won this one, but I think in many cases raising here is not the right play.
