River: 2♣ ($20.52, 2 players)
HERO checks, BTN bets $13.13, HERO ???

I believe he should bet every made hand or draw on the flop, maybe checking back some weak J. Turn I beat semi-bluffs and bluffs. River doesn't change anything so call?

I don't think he has too many hands like KdX or AdX because he would fold pre-flop. When he completes against the squeeze he mostly has pocketpairs and suited broadways.

Given that you think he is the type to stab once and give up (not sure if that read is relevant in this spot but we have to extrapolate from existing information), I think this could be a call Turn fold River spot.

Great to have information on his tendency to stab at the Flop when it is checked to him. He is mostly repping 77, slowplayed 99/J9s, weak JX, Flushdraw which did not bet Flop, and pure air. I still think his value range can fairly wide so I would be more inclined to fold here.

I also think that you should have already planned the hand on the Turn before making the call. Were you prepared to call down on Blank Rivers? OR do you expect him to give up so you can fold to a 2nd bet without much thought?

Which FDs would you check flop with at his place?
Most of them have gutshot also and should be happy betting flop, right?

Would you expect him calling 3bet w J9o?
I don't think so... Also his 4bet was 22, would expect him to 4b JJ.

Yeah, his sizing looks a lot like Jx, but I found people at nl50 doesn't vbet thinly, so expect him checking back KJ or at least QJ.

Plan was mostly to call blanks as my flop assumptions made me think he would bet flop with most value hands or draws. I would x/f diamond river as he shouldn't give me much credit if I c/shove river and he could bet turn with lot of Adx, Kdx.

I'd probably lead the turn vs the two check backs, I expect to have the best hand quite often and we can get calls by Akdx and also if we protect our equity I think its fine, on certain rivers we can do some funky stuff too.

He should never have j9o to the 3bet :)

River jam looks quite sexy, pretty sure we get a lotttttttttt of ridiculous folds, especially at NL50, depends on his WTSD.

What we fold out by shoving that it makes it better than call?

Hello flekozub,

Turn: Like the idea of donking the turn and protecting our hand from 1card FD. It might be even very likely that we are ahead and doing it for value. By Check/Calling it will be more difficult to play the hand and Call both streets.

As played
River: You kinda mentioned yourself that he is a guy who likes to Bet & done style, so what's the reason that you thinking of Calling it now? Rather stick to the plan you had earlier and which seems to be that once he bets again we are planning to fold.

I am never excluding here JJ from his range cause the 3bettor is kinda nitty and he might understand that as well, which makes him instead just call and play postflop, so JJ of course is also possible in his range there.

Best Regards.
