I assume you bet the river figuring he would call with a worse hand... and that is obviously not happening. Could he be bluff-raising? Seems like a strange board to check-call down and then put in a CR bluff... it doesn't look very scary. I find I'm usually behind with top-pair when I'm check-raised on the river so I would let this go with only MPTK. But I can understand you being curious. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

... folds, without a second thought. The river blanks, and there's nothing on that board for BB to bluff at. He just hit 2 pair or better.

The only thing that I notice here is that a diamond draw missed.

Let it go unless he already showed tricky moves.

Oh yeah. I don't think the pot's big enough to worry that this is what he's doing.
