Default I pull out the Big Sexy on the River

.50/$1 NLHE Full Table Villian and I both have ~$100.

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
1 fold, 2 limps, Hero limps, 2 folds, Villian calls $1, 1 fold, both blinds call.

Flop: ($5.75) 9 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue"> (6 players)</font>
4 checks, Hero bets $5.50, Villain calls, 4 folds.

Turn: ($16.25) 5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue"> (2 players)</font>
Hero bets $10, Villain raises to $20, Hero calls $10.

River: ($54) K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue"> (2 players)</font>
Hero checks, Villian bets $30, Hero pushes for ~$73...

Look good? Villian was very aggressive. Bet his TT all the way against opposition with two overs on the board. He's been caught firing second barrels a few times already and has been up and down. If he has a flush, he's getting in probably no matter what on the end. If he has air, which I half-suspected, the only way to get more from him is to not 3-bet the turn, check to him and let him bet the river, which I was 90% sure he would do. Thoughts??

EDIT: I forgot to mention, one of the reasons I suspected air on the turn was the minraise. He had made legit raises with made hands before this hand.

Looks alright given your read, although personally I would just push turn. My chief reason for getting it in on the turn are the river action killers - 9, 5, heart.

I like the way you played it on the turn. Give him one more chance to hang himself on the river.

That's the reason I posted it. It is FPS and I'm not sure if the tradeoff is worth it. He called so I know what he had. Will post results later.

Your weak turn bet-call and check/all in river look beautiful to me. But I'm in a FPS 12-step program.

Is the "big-sexy" a c/r all in?
And to further distract you, what is shania?

perfect

one thing i learned from playing extensive NL from .05/.10 to 400 NL is that if the villain mini-raises turn, he bets the river 90% of the time

those that dont mini-raise draws, and you can adapt accordingly

Can't seem to figure out what FPS is (although i'm sure i know what it is) and how does a 5 kill the action???? If he has a flush draw it does of course, but....

Because he's not going to bet unless he has a 9 or better pair...unless he has the 5, in which case you're screwed.
