Hey,

Reads – v seems to be active, they do call often pre with marginal hands they also have r/c with hands like ATo and are capable of floating pretty wide. I did check their stats and they are a winning player , profiting over 8k. So they are pretty decent.

I decided to bet turn because i'm pretty sure i have the best hand here when v checks twice. I think it's very much unlikely Jx will be played like this , i also think most draws will be bet on the flop or at least on the turn.

although the river does complete a flush  and a straight, I'm not to worried about it , i don't think those are in his range. I think he's got very weak hands in their range ,pretty much marginal hands like maybe 55/66 or Ax which they may try to be bluff catching with?

anyhow , do you prefer checking back OTR since our hand does have showdown value OR do you prefer to turn your hand into a bluff here?

i think turning our hand into a bluff is prolly the best imo. when i made this bet on the river , i bet it for thin value which seems kinda weird because i think its unlikely that those pocket pairs will call on such a board…

thoughts?

Cheers.
