I'll try blocking bet next time, it's just I really didn't think he'd overbet the river, and it felt like he was going to raise a river bet with alot of holdings here. If you bet 45-50 and he minraises you, do you call?

Reads are important, but generally, the point of a blocking bet is to get a cheap showdown and fold if raised. Some people, however, have trouble doing that and call the raises anyway.

Yeah... sometimes I'm one of those people. But I'm really trying to stop, which makes for some tough rivers at times. I haven't seen him play any hands who were similar to this one, which makes it hard to do anything based on a read, and on top of it all I'm OOP.
It's too bad you can't move seats and keep your stack on party, since I had been trying to catch a big hand against this guy for maybe 45minutes atleast, and saw a couple opportunites for a change of seat, but then I would be back at 100bb again...
