SB is 14/6/2.72/27 WTSD/507

An orbit or two earlier in a blind steal/ blind defense situation, he c/red and capped the flop, then folded to my turn raise.

you can call or raise. i like both. if he's observant he's got you on a pocket pair or something like AQo...

I dunno. You're folding if he 3bets?

Does he fold a higher PP enough to make it worth when he has a lower PP and bets the river again (so you can call again) or is he calling down with a lower PP anyway?

I think this hand is somewhat interesting, but then again I think all my hands are. So somebody tell me if it isn't really.

Anyway, what hand range do you put my opponent on? Which hands would it be better to call down against vs. raising and taking a free show down (and folding to a 3-bet which was my plan here)?

If nothing else, just rip my play.

Edit to add that my read on the opponent was important here.

It looks like he's semi-retarded and likes to make big laydowns, so I think the chances of him betting to fold are good, and this is possibly a value bet on the river.
