Default Ed Miller be damned, I\'m folding (5/10)

UTG is very solid ABC multitabling TAG, probably 2+2er. No funny business. Stats are: 25/20/3.91 over 500+ hands, 5.7 on flop, 5 on turn and 1.5 on river. I'm guessing his pre-flop capping range is somewhere around TT-AA, AKs, AKo, AQs, AQo, KQs.

Button is megafish preflop (46/3/.06 over 115 hands) but semi-aggressive post flop with aggression of: 1.1 on flop, 1.9 on turn and 5.75 on river. Very, very strange player.

I now that 115 hands is not a lot, but he's 5.75 on the river and it's a huge pot. I underestand that your chances may be meek, but I'd still call this river.

Do you have a hand range of these two opponents where I can take this pot down 10% of the time? Maybe the megafish is pulling off the riverbluff of the century, but what is UTG staying to the river with that I can beat?

oh sorry, my mistake, I thought it was one bet to you. No, I don't think you'll take this one one in 10...but I still find folding difficult, but probably correct.

I'm a little confused why you 3-bet the solid player's UTG pfr OOP.

The way it played out, I'm a little confused why you led the flop.

The way that played out, I think the river fold is fine.

I don't think Ed would tell you to call 2 with that action. It's a much more interesting question had the button only called. And what Redd said: Do we want to lead the flop and if we do, do we 3-bet it, given this guy's "no-nonsense" style and capping range?

I don't think I 3-bet this flop.

River is an easy fold.

I'd check/raise the flop. And the pot really isn't that big at the river, you're getting ~9.6 to 1 at best, although I think the best you can hope for is 4.8 to 1 once in awhile.
