Villian seems to be an alright player, if a little loose pre-flop and aggro post-flop.

Thoughts (other than bet the flop heh - thought he might bet turn and river with smaller pair).

Raise the river, 120-180 seems good.

How much is in the pot on the river?

Edited for pot size. What range of hands do you put Villian on here?

These stakes are over my head, but in general I think I call and expect a worse two pair. The 8 only seems to help 64 or J9, but even those hands are making a pretty bad turn call when you raise their semi-bluffs. He's probably raising any PP that makes a set (except maybe 55 and 77) preflop. T7, T8 seem most likely.

TPGK, worse two pair, 64, set. I think its worse two pair often enough to make a value raise.

btw - calling is fine.

I like a call here on the river and I don't mind the flop check.

I expect you will win often against a worse two pair, but it looks like 46 as well. Hmm, maybe there is value in a river raise, just a small one.

Meh. To me this is so razor thin to raise the river. Maybe it's a leak in my game?!? But, when faced with a situation like this I'll just call 98% of the time. I figure I'd be happy to get $60 from villian on the river. That he bet it into me instead of c/c'ing is like arguing over semantics.

What possible hands will he call a river raise from me? Worse two pair? If so, what two pair? T8?
