FPS on river?

I rarely play on Stars, but if I multitable 30-60 for a few hours I can get a $120 bonus. Awesome, I love bonus whoring.

So, no reads, no data on the opponent.

I put this dude on AK after his turn raise, call 3-bet. I don't think he'll raise the river, even when he fills up so I went for the check-raise. FPS, or EV-maximization? You be the judge.

Perfect.

Good 2+2 players do not checkraise the river for value enough after having the lead throughout the hand. Plus you might get another bet out of a busted flush draw.

I think you miss a chance to bet/3 bet on this board, and risk missing a bet completely.

Personally, I don't bet anything but a 4 if you check to me.

I think your hand is pretty well defined after you cap pf and 3bet the turn. I wouldn't try this c/r against someone who has any kind of hand-reading skills.

anyone like just calling pf to disguise our hand?

it's not something i do enough, but i think it depends on the opponents... also, since stars isn't his usual site, there aren't many meta-game applications to just calling w/ aces there

looks like AK, yeah nh. Shame if he has KK [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

He bet. I raised. He called. He had KJo. I think very few players can resist betting a king when checked to here.
