Default Re: I don\'t like my line here (2/4 6-max)

Check-call, check-raise turn. You make the most out of him if he's trying to fire two barrels with missed overs, or a low pocket, as he's probably not calling most river bets with A-high. He's also definitely going to call your check-raise with the flush, and definitely calling a value bet on the river, maybe even a push. If he has any 8 he's also calling.

I just don't see him calling the river push, but could be calling a check-raise on the turn with an overpair or a lone Ad, especially if you give him odds.

Actually, if he doesn't usually fire two barrels (I don't know many decent LAGs that do, especially on such a scary board), I like check-call, lead turn for 1/2 pot better. He's either got something or he doesn't, and 1/2 pot will entice an overpair with a diamond, or any high diamond, really. And he will definitely raise you with the flush or any 8.
