Default River Play

Folded to me in CO with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I raise. SB and BB both call. Both are fairly loose and passive so I'm not too worried.

Flop 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. They check to me I bet they call. I believe they call here with any 2.

Turn is J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. They check to me I bet because I think there's a good chance I have the best hand still. SB folds, BB calls.

River is 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] giving me the straight. BB checks I bet he raises. I 3-bet, he caps, I fold.

Reasonable? Should I just call the river c/r?

Did you really fold a 13BB pot for one bet on the end with disguised straight?

I play it like you did all the way up to where you folded.

I 3-bet the river and call the cap. I think you are up against a set of deuces more than 1 out of 13 times here.

I thinkt he 3-bet is good, as you will often get weak players trying to be "tricky" and slowplaying something like A2 here and then coming alive on the river. I'm not sure I could fold this to the cap.

It would really suck if he slowplayed you with a better hand then pushed you off with a worse one. IMO this happens more than 1 in 13 times. I'd call the river.

Without a SUPER read on the opponent, Im 3betting the c/r every time. Folding to the cap is just incredibly poor.

I 3-bet the river and call the cap. I think you are up against a set of deuces more than half the time here.

How do you fold here? I think that's really bad.

He could have a 2, AJ, KJ (probably not), A4

I definitely don't fold the river cap.

No I actually called, I just wanted to see if this was the right play [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

My thought was when he check/raised it's very often trips, but surely a passive player won't cap with just trips here. So my thought was that I should either call his raise or raise/fold.

Do you really think it's that often? Maybe I overestimate my opponents. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
