Flop: (5.40 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>

Villain here calls A LOT. He plays any 2 suited and is a cold calling master.

After the villan called your turn bet on a board of J J 5 5, what do you put him on? It is very unlikely that he has a J or a 5, but he doesn't seem to be afraid of them so I would have to put him on another pocket pair or an ace.

I think your river bet will, at best, result in a split pot since the villan will most likely (and did) call a rver bet with ace high or better. Therefore, I don't think it is a good one.

My aim was to get him to fold an ace, as my play indicates a J or 5, no? Perhaps he doesn't have an A often enough to override other concerns?

Lets say he has an ace (which I think is your best case scenario). If he calls a lot, like you said, and called your turn bet, why do you think he will fold to a river bet when a total blank hits?

Dude, sucks to be you if that's your best case scenario. My best case scenario involes like the penthouse at the Palms, ten hot women, like two hundred bottles of Cristal, and a Jacuzzi filled with cans of whipped cream and hundred dollar bills.
