1/2 nl 400 eff

Villain - BB, covers hero, playing general bad passive but somewhat spazzy. Seen him turn pairs into bluffs a few times

OTTH $5 button straddle. Villain and UTG limp for 5, Hero in LJ with A2ss, overlimps. CO limps and button checks

Flop ($25) 822hdh

Checks to hero who bets $20, only villain calls

Turn ($65) 9d

Checks to hero who bets $30, villain takes 5 seconds before c/r to 100. Hero calls

River ($265) Ko

Villain jams, Hero?

Easy call. If he has the boat, he has the boat

Never folding. Sorry you lost, you must run bad.

snap calling with two flush draws out there on turn he could have a lot of combos that you crush and very few that you lose to

V limps pre, continues, c/r turn, jams riv. If he doesn't have 88/99/KK I'd be surprised....I mean, people don't just start c/r combo draws to small sizing on a paired board on the turn, so what's he supposed to have? A2cc exactly? A ******ed 89? JJ-QQ? Those don't jam river. 1/2 players don't just bluff c/r and then jam riv in these spots, so I'd probably sigh fold. Feels dirty, but they just have it so often when they play a hand this way.

I wouldn’t fault someone for calling but this is almost always a boat.

Bluffing all in 200bb deep on 822 in a 5 way limped pot almost never happens. This is always for value. The only question is does he ever do this with a worse value hand. Don't go broke in a limped pot is an overused mantra but definitely applies to passive players.
