Final Board: 8 A 7 K 6
Hero mucked A K and lost (-$19.33 net)

Only 35 hands, so far it looked like a passive fish with an unusually high PFR.

PRF: We are deep and BB looks like a fish as well so I decide to just call and play it post flop.
Flop: As I don't have much to protect from I go for a check/call in the hopes BB calls as well.
Turn: As I taste my pot I start raising for value and protection.
River: Nasty river. Every FD (now flush) and T9, not to mention sets are possible here given our play so far. Too soon to check/fold tho as I still have a ton of hands to get value from. Felt like a normal sized bet/fold here would have been a bit too committing tho and also a bit too scary for oppo. So I go for a block bet, and fold (crying) to action.

Hey AtrociousNightmare,

Preflop call is fine.

Flop x/c is reasonable but totally fine to lead given BB is a fish imo. Protection is also more important 3-way even if the texture looks safe-ish.

I slightly prefer x/c turn x/c river here. We are pretty close to the bottom of our turn value x/r range here which makes extracting value problematic in some cases.

River play is decent.
