TPTK under pressure... river decision

Ok i see it is possible for him to have an 8, but unlikely to me unless its J8 or 89, calling my flop bet.

Also, i think 2 pair would not make this play on the river, fearing a straight. Same goes for a set.

So the only hands i could deduce he had were a worse J or a bluff.



I called and he showed Q7 and MHIG.


P.S. I think he is folding most of the time if I make a real bet on the river and only made this play because i showed weakness.

i see what u r saying w/ your reasoning, and i tend to go w/ my reads a lot. the problem is donks play like donks, they can have any 2 at any time. i still dont think u r good often enough to make this +EV...
