MP2 is a solid straightforward player

For this line of play to be successful, you must believe 1) your opponent will raise with a wide variety of hands that are not pocket pairs or do not contain a Jack, and 2) your opponent is not overly aggressive and will simply call your check-raise with two overcards hoping to catch. You also are willing to fold if you get reraised.

I have used this line of play successfully against opponents with these characteristics. If I really believe my opponent has defined his hand as something like AK, I might go ahead and bet the river if I have seen him call in this situation without a pair.

Bet the river.

I saw this hand, and against this particular opponent, I do not believe he would have called the turn bet with just overcards.

Then what's the question in the post?
