So I'm sitting in a good table, just two two regs where one I consider good.

V (900ish) is this decent reg who is might able to make plays or bluffs.

H (400) i sat down not long ago so we didn't have any hands togheter, not played a lot in general.

I'm on the BB and four limpers, I check with A4o.

Flop comes 53Qr (10£): V checks, H bets 7, one fold, one call (saying "donation"), one fold.
V squeeze to 25, I think a bit and I decide to call, the other one folds as expected.

So on the flop I'm not scared of v2 since he's drunkish and he's calling VERY wide everything pre and on the flop, I'm 99% he's gonna fold to V1 raise.
I decide to call because if I hit my two I can win a lot since I'm in position and he's definitely barrell turn as well.

Turn is A (fd opens) (67£): V bets 35, I think a bit and call.

V bet size screams weakness to me and I picked up an ace which I think might be good against this oppo.

River 2c (fd is now on board) (137£): V thinks five seconds and fire 115.

Hero?

Thoughts on other lines?

I think you played it fine assuming you shove the river.

Assuming the Q wasn't a club. I'm usually call riv.

You mean the A?

I not sure what's going on in this hand, but maybe you can enlighten me.

Why do you bet the idiot end of a gutshot with one A-no kicker over card, OOP, on the flop into four other opponents? Were you hoping they would fold?

Why do you call V's $17 squeeze when you're only $375 deep? Odds are like 11:1 against hitting your gut-shot. If you truly believe V is 'squeezing' and not value-CRing (meaning he's holding a weak hand) it's unlikely you'll be paid off when you hit, and once in a while you'll have a beautiful second best hand and loose it all.

Why does slightly more than 1/2 pot bet OTT 'scream weakness' to you? How likely do you think it is V backed into a flush draw (hint: not very)?

OTR, I'll probably just call - the only value hand V will pay you off with is a set, and it's unlikely he would have CR'ed that on the dry flop.

Grunch:

Pre is fine. Flop is spewtastic. Even if V can be making a play here, you have two other Vs who have shown interest in the pot. Plus you have already said he's definitely going to fire again OTT. Turbo-fold!

Turn is fine, if we got there, but we should never have done so.

River is interesting. A flush for V seems pretty unlikely, given that the most likely BDFD he could be betting OTF would have the Ac, which showed up OTR. Still, a raise is unlikely to get a call from worse with a 4-liner to a straight and 3 to a flush on the board. I don't think we can raise here. I call.

Ok, thank you who answered.

I ended up calling, he showed a Queen and mucked.

Meant the Q on board - a player may have more value bets otr with this line. Makes it more firmly a call than a call/raise if Q wasn't a club

Preflop is fine

Flop isn't. Next time you call the flop bet with a gut shot and one over you need a plan. Will your villain fold to a reraise otf? If so then raise his bet and take it down with a semi bluff. You had 7 outs providing you with about a 15% chance of winning the hand. You're calling 18 more to win 46 so that's 1:3.5, which is not the right price to call.

With that being said the turn and river is fine once you hit your TP.

You hit your hand- I think you have to call here. V could be straight continuation betting the entire way through, and you just hit the hand you were looking to hit. If he rivered out a flush- you gotta pay him off in my opinion.

After the flop and turn call, you have to call the river.
