What's your river action?

Yes, he's very likely to be trying to take this down with less than the nuts. But that alone isn't enough justification to raise, he has to be likely to have a hand good enough to call but not a full house. In fact, since you're paying off raises, you have to get more than twice as many calls from losing hands as raises, situations where you raise and he mucks his bluff you've gained nothing by raising. I don't see why its obvious that he's on exactly two pair or trips that often.

Uhh, yeah. What he said.

I think you have to raise. If tricky's really tricky he may reraise with 3 Js (which is what I think he has, with a Q) and you'll have to pay off to see them. I think the turn probably was a failed c/r. If I get beat with this hand I just tap the table and say nice hand.

I raised, they both called. OK player showed QJ and the SB mucked.

I am also sure the OK player missed a check-raise, maybe even the SB also on the turn.

I don't get this post. Why wouldn't I raise?

I did. There is no question to raise. I posted it as an example.

I still can't believe 7 out of 40 votes were for call. Could the 7 people who are weak-tighter than me please explain why they wouldn't raise this river?

Wow I didn't read the results. I'm not surprised however and this is why I posted it.

For those 7 people, raise the river.
