Your river 3bet is too much for sure and IŽll probably slow down ealier than that.

87/76 probably raise your flop bet, so turnraise means he just hit with T9 or slowplayed 86 mostly.
3betting here is fine, but when he caps you should probably just call down.

I like the turn 3bet, but when he caps its definitely time to put the brakes on. I check/call river.

alright, at least i got one street right [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

last night was the first time i was playing shorthanded stars. wow it's so much faster than party. you can cap a street with another person in 3 seconds if you wanted! i didn't even put them on a straight draw (which hit the turn), only the stupid flush draw.

I am soooooooooooo check-calling the river, and think I barely have odds to do so against your typical low-limit passive player. Best you can hope for is AA (super unlikely, no pf raise) or 87 (possible with an UTG limp). What else is a normal player capping with here? Obviously, a higher set or T9 or 54s are more likely, overall.

check call the river, lowest possible set and up against possible straight, that could have been hit on the turn, getting worse on the river with another straight.

When you are reraised, stop and think,
