Villain is Tim0thy. Do people bet the river, and do people call?

id rather check the river than bet the amount you did. i think its small bet or just check behind, its hard to think of many hands we beat in his range that c/c your river bet

fold to the shove

My first thought was bet that river, but there's not a whole lot he can call with that we beat... maybe KQ or something.

Don't see how we can call that river. If he thinks we have air or wants to push us off a hand, he doesn't need to bet nearly that much to do so. His line is still somewhat consistent with a flush that wanted to check raise turn, and then sees the river ace figuring you are going to bet it most of the time.

Generally the more capable I think someone is of checkraising the riv, the less I vbet and in this specific case I'd probably check like 80%

Unless it is to induce a c/r I am checking the river here against anyone decent.
