Re: Tough river decision against unknown
Given that he is unknown, I don't hate it. I've seen minraises from KJ, KTs and so on, but I'm still not sure you are winning on this river 33% of the time.

Re: Tough river decision against unknown
Against a raiser, I check call the whole way in fear of AK. KQ can be very dangerous out of position against a raise.

Re: Tough river decision against unknown
The villain had KJ and I took it down. Was certain he had AK or 88 though, given the action so I was pleased when the money was coming my way.
I still think it's bad to call in that position but it's really hard to get away from. |

Re: Tough river decision against unknown
Your line on the flop leaves you with no info. Board is draw free, and very few, if any cards will hurt you.
Come out with a decent bet and see what they do, or check it and observe the action. I'd prefer a check, since PFR is behind you and you have absolute position here. Then you can decide how to play rest of the hand. |
