It's nice to finally see people criticizing the play in this hand because I did not like it. I hope we keep talking about preflop and the river. Thank you.

Yeah, that PF argument is a red herring.

I hate the river 3bet, and am shocked that Rob said you played this fine.

Your oppo either:

1) has a high PP
2) has a PP lower than tens
3) is bluffing

In case 3) your 3bet has no value. In case 2) your 3bet has value only if this guy sucks. In case 1) you're throwing away money. I really don't get it.

most nutty lags aren't folding ace high if they've checkraised with it on the river, fwiw. So if he's doing something like that 3) is possible. I also seriously think that he might have a straight here. That all said, calling the river looks best, and that's the only street I have any qualms about. If we were in MP, it's another story. On the button, it's a clear play imo.
