$6.37 pot ($0.29 rake)
Final Board: 4 4 A K 7
BB mucked and won $6.08 ($2.92 net)
Hero mucked J A and lost (-$3.16 net)

BB plays 24/15 and has a 13.3 3bet in the BB, 38 bb fold to btn steal. 50 fold to cbet flop and 100 fold to cbet turn (107 hands) player looks fishy and has very strange bet sizings.
Till the turn its standard play imo, on turn i decide to check to get value from a king, weaker ace or random pocket pair on river.
He leads on the river with small bet, I decide to raise small to my initial value plan on river. He shoves and says in chat: ''i know ur bleffing''

I think he hitted his flush or set on river and decide to fold, was it correct play?

Hi kildex,

Do we really have value with a river raise there?

Ask yourself why he bets that small. What range he can bet that with?

Either block bets a hand like Kx or he is inducing... so just call.

It's also good to note that you do NOT beat any other Ax.,
