Well he has something. A guy with his AF isn't making to many desperation bluffs. The question is does he have something I can beat enough to raise.

I don't think so. Looks like FPS with a flopped straight. Be happy he sucks and you did not lose more.

78s is possible, but so is 55, 66, and two pair. I raise and call a 3-bet.

Nope. With a .5'er I'd expect to see 78 there, and would not be shocked to see KJ or QQ

I cannot see raising the river here. Why is he suddenly springing to life? (let's remember his post flop aggression is 0.5)

The river card had to have helped him. So what range of hands could he hold that would be helped by the 6? 66 and 78 are basically it, no? And I'd have to find 66 less likely given the 3 overcards on the flop.

I think the % of time this bet is a bluff (or villan holding 66) is low enough to justify just calling and not raising.

What leads you to believe that a flopped hand is more likely than something that got there on the turn/river?

As much as I want to raise - I don't think I could.
