Default Re: Wild 20/40 game at the Borgata is this a right play?

reraise preflop.

fold river IF your read is correct. has villian c'red river here and not been called down before? has he c'red been called and then did it again and was not called? has he always shown down a hand when he shows late street aggression? if yes to the latter then that's a pretty easy fold.

which makes betting the river easy. nice bet GIVEN that you can easily fold to the raise. if you cannot, then you should check.

i read somewhere in the thread somebody said "check river and you can easily fold to the c'r" this logic is wrong. if folding is easy to the c'r, bet the river for value given IF he just called the turn. but he bet the turn.

yea i forgot he bet called the turn. river might be a check behind.

NOTE: if you are NOT sure on your read, be careful as an excellent player may see you have a hand like 77-99 (given no preflop 3bet) and c'r the river to get you off it, not to get a call. i dontt hink that matters here though as your read was villian here has a strong hand.
