Hello,

Few hands ago before this one, I had a similar situation where the same villain min-raised from EP and I called from BB with the difference being that in that hand he c-bet 1/2 on all three streets, where this time he cbet only the flop which made me think that he missed and might have something like AK, AQ, AT. Having that in mind, on the river I thought that I could make him fold these with almost any bet-size as long as its not too tiny. Not sure about my call OTF though. I considered check-raising but I felt like he will only call if he has an overpair.

Normaly I would fold this right away. The reverse implied odds makes this hand tricky to play post-flop. Especially multi way. The flop seems alright with the straight draw. If you check/raise you need to play for stacks and you haven't a great draw with 6 clean outs for a straight and you don't want to gamble as 2nd in chips against the chip leader.

Cheers,
