Should I raise this river?
The SB player is a LAG and BLUFFER. No read on UTG. Because he is such a BLUFFER, I really thought about a raise to the river bet - what does everyone think? Any other mistakes?

I fold this river. Even if SB is bluffing UTG probably has a real hand.

Re: Should I raise this river?
I call this river -- the raise is risky w/the strong possibility either the SB or UTG possibly re-raising.
However, I definitely wouldn't fold. SB may also have a straight, and UTG could have been easily betting with two-pair or a set of 10's. |

Re: Should I raise this river?
raising - good chance guy behind you folds, if the bettor does not have a straight beat he folds and you win 1 extra bet if he has a straight beat he either calls and you lose an extra bet or he reraises and you fold without seeing showdown or you call and lose 2 extra bets..
calling - chance guy behind you calls as well meaning if your hand is good you win 2 bets (as opposed to 1 if you raise with the besthand) or at worst he folds and if your hand is good you win the same as if you raised.. and you lose less if you are behind folding - win 0 more bets, lose pot i think calling is the best action here edit: the only time a raise would be better then a fold would be if you knew that SB Also had a straight and your raise MIGHT make him fold and win you the entire pot |

Re: Should I raise this river?
I'm going to ignore the river for a second. I feel you need to bet the flop here. You have an OESD and a bd flush draw. I would call the river.
