River choice

If he's aggressive, why not call the flop and raise the turn?

Cause that screams "big hand".

Yes, it does, but so what? He's not folding 77+ or 2 overcards on this board, especially if he's loose.

Whatever action I choose on the river, it's not going to include folding.

Even though he's aggressive and might be raising with lots of hands pre-flop, I'm guessing his most likely holding is a pair bigger than sixes that he thinks is good.

If it happens to be 77 or AA, that sucks, but I think much more often it will be 88-QQ and you'll win an extra couple bets by raising the river and calling a 3-bet.

perhaps, but he may fold other hands and 1) you miss out on the chance to have him 3-bet the flop and 2) its less likely he gets outta line on the big bet streets if you pop the turn.

I just call here. If your behind your just bleeding the 2 extra bets in an 11 BB pot.
