Call this river bet?

Do you guys think I should have called this river bet? I didn't know if I was behind or Villian was trying a bluff (sat down only a few hands before)

Thanks

Normally, I would muck pre-flop, but once you got to this point, I don't see why you bet so weak on the earlier streets.

Bet more on the flop, more on the turn, call the river.

I guess I am afraid of being slowplayed. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] What is an appropriate amount to bet here?

I'm gonna bet about full pot on the flop, 1/2-2/3 bet on the turn, then, if it's checked to you on the river, another 1/2 pot value bet on the river.

Fold preflop.
Bet 3/4-full on flop.
Check behind on turn.
Call a river bet.

Getting there as you did, I think I'd fold on the river.

Ok thanks. If you're min-raised on the flop/turn/river is it safe to fold?

What does (poster) mean? He posts here?

If he posts here, I think it's safe to fold to any raise.

If he's unknown and check/min-raises the flop, I think I'd call and see how things develop.

If he flat-calls flop, turn goes check/check, river goes check/bet/raise, you can fold.

Poster means that he posted a blind out of the blinds (i.e. he just sat down, just came back from a break).

Oh, ok.
