Default Re: PP $200 - River play with boat

He's tight, and passive, and yet has bet the pot on the turn. I don't like taking the lead away from a player like this. I would check/raise on the river.

alright, maybe it is as easy as "i have a boat, i think he'll call, push", but he didn't call. what can you guys put him on that raises the turn, but folds the river?

i think a c/r all-in is better than a push here

let him keep the aggression, he raised the turn, play scared

i think i push if the river is an 8 though

The only hands that you lose value to with a check/raise are Ax non-boated, and I'm not so sure he'd raise that turn with that hand.

Every boat bets, every boat calls a c/r all in.

Flush draws might bet/obviously fold to a bet.

OBVIOUSLY we go broke to AQ if he has it.

OTOH.. pot is $191, and he can't fold an A here if you push. If you think it's at all likely that he'd raise the turn with a bare A, I think pushing is better. However, I don't think it is at all likely, considering the action.

I think the reverse is even more true, the villain would have to be pretty bad to play a bluff here. I personally would check behind with a weak Ace here (any ace that isn't a fullhouse or AK), but would probably reluctantly call with the same hand.
