yo dude,

I'd check/raise the river and call a three bet. If he has 66 so be it.

I go for a river c/r as well and call 3 bet.

Esp. because then the button doesn't have to call 2 cold and may "look him up" for 1 bet.

If you go for a river c/r, it might get checked through. Villain could have AJ or QQ (or even lower pair), and get spooked by the K. I like the way you played the river.

Villain is agro, and likes to bet. I doubt he is checking the river behind. His wait till the turn raise means power, and I don't think he is gonna get scared by the king. I guess we miss out on bets occasionally when it does get checked through, but I think that this happens rare enough that we are making a lot more by getting in the 2 bets.

anyone like a bet/3bet on the flop?

I like this all the way, why get greedy on the river with the CR and whiff??? think this sucker set up? Also, if your CR river, your calling a 3 bet? I really dont like a 3 bet call, because im not sure what else he would 3bet unless he set, especially after u check raised him and showed that much strength.

It's real slow at work here so I worked on this as a problem and based on the various ways the river can go it looks like check vs bet is pretty dang close, but check raising is ahead even against a typical opponent. As long as the opponent is aggro it's an even better choice, and improved a little bit more due to the increased chances of getting at least 1 bet from the button.

Then again my analysis might suck.
