I'm a man of many moods. And few bb's/hr. Help patch my ship!

This table is medium loose and mostly passive and these opponents are typical.

I'd probably bet the river unless I had a LOT of respect for SB. But if I had a lot of respect for SB and the heart killed me, I would have expected SB to check-3-bet the flop.

So I'd bet the river. You'll get called too often by a 7 or a T or worse on Party 3/6 to pass it up. Folding to a checkraise is notes dependent.

The rest of the hand looked pretty standard.

And the post was funny.

I have close to zero respect for this player. But when he bet the flop I put him on a range of hands that included 2 hearts, and I got spooked when the third heart hit.

I agree I should have bet the river. Thanks.
