Default Full house, raised on the river.

I thought about calling but then I pushed because hey - I have a full house. Later I thought perhaps calling is a better play. If he is bluffing he isn't calling my push and there is a chance he has a better hand here.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (7 handed) converter

Hero (t2355)
BB (t765)
UTG (t1100)
MP1 (t1525)
MP2 (t930)
CO (t795)
Button (t530)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls t50, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (t150) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG checks.

Turn: (t150) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG checks.

River: (t150) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero bets 125, BB raises to 250, 1 fold, Hero pushes

Depending on the limit, I fully expect BB to play Q4 or A4 this way. I push.

I try and trap BB again, he has about 400 left after the raise so reraise again by 200. This gets the same effect as a push but he is more likely to pay you off since its less scary [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, and always fold KK preflop when reraised all in right, Mr. weak-tight?

I don't know what minraises in this kind of situation means to you. In my experience it certainly doesn't mean "I'm bluffing, please fold".

And if you didn't notice, I did push.

It's not like he will call you only when your beat here, far from it. And unlike a previous reply, I'd say a push is the best sized bet, most likely per chip to get a call from an inferior hand, no?

It's a little different in this spot cause it was checked down. If this is low limit, I'd raise back min or slightly more than min. You may get a crying call off of a whole range of dumb hands, and an all in push from all the hands that would've called your push. Calling here is too passive.
