Default I can\'t fold this river... can I?

Ok. Two questions:

Do I bet this river?
Do I call this river raise?

Villian is pretty much a straightforward player. VPIP 23% PFR 13% over 300 hands. Sorry for crap hand history format.

Table "Ottumwa" Seat 1 is the button.
Seat 1: Samanta (£56.25 in chips)
Seat 2: Hero (£127.25 in chips)
Seat 3: Thomps007 (£55.20 in chips)
Seat 4: Makarov24 (£136.88 in chips)
Seat 5: Jaggoo (£167.73 in chips)
Seat 6: blind5 (£40.79 in chips)
Hero: posts small blind £0.50
Thomps007: posts big blind £1
Jaggoo: posts big blind £1 + posts small blind £0.50
blind5: posts big blind £1 + posts small blind £0.50
----- HOLE CARDS -----

Hero: raises £1.50
Thomps007: folds
Thomps007 sits out
Jaggoo: calls £1
Thomps007 sits back
blind5: calls £1

Call it.
And use a converter the next time.

Yes, the river bet is good. The call, I'm not so sure about. I don't think TPTK is good very often here, so I guess you could fold it. Against a more unknown player I might call it for information and to let him know I can't be bluffed easily, just in case.

I like the bet. I think he checks behind with more losers than he bluffs with. Plus he might bluff-raise if he's aggressive, in which case you can call. If he's really passive, a fold might be OK, but I wouldn't do it.

Well, if you're planning on posting cryptologic hands on this forum, you're going to have to take the time to write it out manually. Posting names of your opponents is a problem, as is pasting in a hand history in an unfriendly format.

So use the icons below, like [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] etc. and write it out, with a calculation for SB and BB per round and # of players.

convert it manually and it takes an extra two mins of your time, if you don't convert it takes an extra 20 seconds for dozens that you want to read it. do some ev calcs on that one.

and I call the river expecting to usually be beat, but I wouldn't fold tptk here.

Call expecting to loose. I hate bet/fold in somewhat big pots.
