I don't think he's 3barreling with worse/bluff on the river

Hi.

At higher limits this would be a snap call for me. Here I think you might ahve to call as well, given that both flush draws missed. But I suppose NL5 players are not 3-barreling too often with air which makes this spot a lot tougher.

It's close, and I think the EV of folding and calling should be fairly similar.

Thanks.
