By the turn cap, its safe to assume that the villain is either a fool, or has a bigger boat. Check-call the river, and hope he is a fool. No need to spew additional chips on the river.

I think it depends. What was YOUR table image? Did others think you were tight? Plus, the other player may just be terrible. I think it's pretty good to assume that many people playing are just crazy. There are plenty of fish who migh have a queen and think, hey, I've got three of a kind, that's real good! And think they must have the best hand. If you thought the guy was a pretty good player, then maybe give him credit for a bigger boat. I've seen morons going crazy with over pairs here.

Well seems like most people think I shouldn't have 3-bet the river... and your right, I was shown TT. I still can't believe my opponent didn't cap the river, with only quads beating him.

I guess this is just a hand where you have to slow down if you read the opponent as somewhat skilled.

He could have had two pair with the queen filling up. On Party, someone will call down with Q4. So, while capping is definately the best play, he can fear a higher boat as well as quads.

Call his river raise. He either has QT or TT 90% of the time here you will be wasting 1 or 2 BB if you reraise.
