54$ 5m AQo vs decent reg

River looks like a fold. We beat nothing but bluffs and he can't expect us to fold much on this board once we call turn. Betsizing on river looks for value.

Pre looks like a 3b to me, vs a std reg's steal range. Playing oop won't be awesome despite our strong hand.

i usually 3bet pre.

post. standard c/c down 3 streets.

we are ahead of some hands he value bets 3 streets with. our hand looks so much like a Kx or weak Ax a decent reg can try push us off those hands. folding this would be extremely exploitable and bad imo.

another option is to c/r the flop to induce. he knows you cant have AK, so it looks like you are FOS. so he will be more likely to call down light or bluff 3bet.

what did he have, Pet?

AK i dont know if he is gonna bet 3 streets with lots of weaker hands and i wasnt sure if my call down is ok here.

Y, everything smells like we're being taken to value town here. Our range is capped so he can vbet mercilessly and he is just not bluffing enough here imo. Standard reg line is ch/b AJ/AQ/worse showdown hands on turn or riv.

If he's decent, then he knows we're decent. Thus he knows we have few weak Ax in our oop calling range.

I don't feel exploited folding riv in the least.
