I'm posting this just to hear more thoughts on the hand, although i've already discussed it with other players and seemed to come to the same conclusion
1/2 local poker room
Villain is an older gentlemen, probably in his mid 70s. Stated earlier he has been playing poker for 60 years. First time playing with him, no special reads other than he has been playing very straightforward. Not a creative player by any means, as most players at these limits.
Hero has been card dead and has had to fold most hands he's played in the session and has reloaded. Has just won 1-2 pots, been playing for about 4 hours. Hasn't been in showdowns. bluffed once unsuccessfully, got called on the river in a relatively small pot and mucked. Thats all the info the table has on hero at this point. No history with any of the players.
