Hello all,

my reads are MP2-Fish and MP3 a unknown.

My question is was my play correct here or do you would do anything different here?

Looks good to me.

BTW - flopping 2 pair is something I have been keeping track of - at the moment I'm 58 and 27 68.2% when flopping 2 pair.

Looks typical play.

If you know the fish will only bet the nuts, or cluse to it, and you are 100% sure of that then you can fold the river. (assume he has AA KK AK)

But Id have to be 95% sure. There are some players I do fold when they raise because they only raise with the nuts. And I'm always right. Caro says never fold though in a big pot.

They only other move you can make here is on the turn where you pick up the flush draw to gain a bet if you know the better will check check the river. Free showdown + chance to win more.

But Id stick to your line of play 95% of the time
