Villain is loose/passive. VPIP is 75, 0%PFR. I'm thinking Villain has a lone 5, possible a full house. Did I play this okay? Should I just call when he min-raises on the river?

I like your play on all streets up until the river re-raise. The board is paired and your flush ain't the nut flush. Even morons make hands sometimes. Just call the river raise.

Thanks for the reply, any other opinions?

Min-raise is rarely a bluff, just call it. On occassion he might think his A5 is good here for some odd reason, but more often he'll have close to the nuts.

I'm a bit surprised that you're somehow committing your entire stack on something that is far from the nuts. I don't think I'd bet the pot on all streets here. Might be just my paranoia, but a flush doesn't look that good against a raise on a paired board. I might have gone for a check-call on the river.

Well Villain shows TT for a rivered full house. UB is rigged [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

BTW-I hate myself for raising the river.
