Default Re: another river bet/fold (WA/WB)

I think you played it perfectly actually. Your're getting roughly 3:1 on a call down and I think the average 3/6 lagtastic 6 max player is raising a smaller pocket pair on this dry flop 1 in 4 times.

River looks good also since it gains you one BB when he calls with a worse hand when he would have just checked it behind. Your getting raised here by a worse hand close to 0 times. The only other option would be to check/fold but this doesn't really fit into our reasoning for calling the flop. Check calling is also bad since he's only betting hands that beat ours a large majority of the time.
