My time ran out while thinking about it and I was leaning towards calling. No reads.

don;t you think you'll have the best hand at least 1/3 of the time? i think if you call, you might see a set of 3's or 9's, but you could easily see some 2paired hand quite often. i call this

[EchoOfThunder]

What cards would you hold to call on two streets, never raise then bet the river?

Would a set do that? I dont think so, maybe check call the flop then check raise the turn, but wait 2 streets before even opening? I doubt it. MAYBE he has KK, tried to trap preflop, then futily called down and caught it on the river. doubtful but maybe.

Would 24 play it like this? Possibly, having no read doesnt help, but he could have 24, although the 2 to a flush might make him want to raise the turn, i dont think he'd play it like this with 24 either.

My guess is he has A5 or A3, maybe even K9 if he's real loose. And im pretty sure at least 1/3 of the time he will have one of those 3 hands or something else you beat, id call this bet in a heartbeat.

[TheWorstPlayer]

Fold or raise preflop, IMO. Probably raise the flop (although it's a very dry flop, so maybe not). Good bet on the turn. You only have to be good 1/3 on the river. I don't know. I probably call, but I'm a calling station.

[DrFeelgoodRC]

I raise the flop, bet the turn, and call the river

...looks like he missed his flush..i don't see a set playing it that slow and AK would raise it pre flop most of the time...i put that chump all in

[RiverFenix]

Besides not raising pf, you played it fine as calling the river bet is a matter of players preference usually (you should to keep him honest [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] )
