Worth river bet?

[SlyGuy]

SB was 77/16/1 over a small amount of hands. Liked to bluff like your typical donk.
Other dude as 50/6.

If you are gonna bet the river you should have just raised the turn for a free showdown.

The 1 BB more you got in the pot with your line is made up for by the fact that you will make K or Q high hands pay more to draw out on you and will often take it down on the turn or make an easy fold to a 3-bet.

Seems like a good spot to raise the turn.

i like the idea of a turn raise but not against a guy who likes to spend his time bluffing. a typical donk as you describe might think this is good chance to 3bet his jack to clear out the BB.

i also like the river bet, it should show value.

Whoa, why raise the turn? I mean trip aces aren't folding. Sure you might fold KT to KQ but it it worth folding all the pocket pairs, bottom pairs, or weaker hands?

bump bump bumpity bump Schizo!

SB shows KJ or QJ, hero loses.

I like ur line. He will fold to a turn raise in case he's bluffing, but might blufbet the river when u call.

i think the turn and river play are good.

i wouldnt raise the turn if i thought SB could bluff me out by 3betting a weaker holding, so call down / bet if checked to seems like a good line. I think i would calldown if the ace didnt pair on the turn too.
