Truly can't decide if I like the river bet or not.

But b/f only.

Yeah me either lol. I'll sometimes make a rediculously small river value bet with nutted hands when I know v bricked but might have picked up so sort of showdown value. Or when board gets so rediculous scary that it's hard to get called by worse without making it very enticing in terms of pot odds. So I decided to do that here. And as soon as I did I felt sort of blech about it.

Villain tanks a bit then shoves all in.

I didn't think long before folding.

Villain flashes cards to neighbor. I motion to dealer that the hand should be tabled since he showed another player. Dealers nods and flips up Ad9h.

Are you sure this wasn't 1/3NL at the Rio?

We got owned! I guess the moral of the story is the danger of 1/4 pot bet/fold lines.

Yeah. I think chk / bluff catch is best. I leveled myself because when he shoved I think I reinterpreted his genuine discomfort as Hollywooding with the nuts.

After a bit of thought, I think b/f is the correct line here, and in general. I think exploiting the average player's inability to fold is worth the risk.
