Hi guys,

So what, on the river, given the raise size, I was either supposed to call and hope he doesn't have a J + any of the 17 cards that beat me (any for full house or better kickers) AND the diamonds cards. So I guess that even though we're normally aiming at value from worse hands, the river check-raise is something that .... (here you come in:) )

i think pre-flop and flop are fine.

i would tend to check behind turn for pot control because you usually cant get 3 streets of value with top pair in a limped pot.

as played, i call. i discount backdoor diamonds from his range (possible but not the biggest part of his range with the flop action). weighted towards Jx, and we beat most of them so i call.
