Then, of course, there are the times when Villain is waiting for the turn to raise 2-pair and runs into the 4-straight. Capping would be major spewing - the river raise I like, but not overwhelmingly.

The more I think about it I agree a cap would be spewing. The possiblity that this guy is waiting for the turn to raise a two pair hand is significant and this increases the chances that we are behind on the river.

I'm a little bit puzzled by Villains river action. From the previous betting it seems unlikely to me that the river helped his hand, unless he holds AT (then he would surely reraise on the river, but hero of course didn't know that at the time he raised).

I agree. Most villains at 2/4 don't necessarily raise that light from MP, so two broadway cards are a strong possibility. people also love the slowplay, so don't eliminate possibilities by earlier behavior too easily.

Villian showed pocket tens for the lower full house. Thank you all for your comments
