calling flop/turn seems fine i can't imagine why not to call the river.

yeah wtf our pot odds are crazy, he has no 8x in his range, a queen surely has to bet bigger than this, looks very much like 7x or 2x and since we already have 7x covered it's a little less likely.

Just call down and make a note of what he did this with, I'm actually sort of amazed you folded the river with a pair getting those odds

How about raising the turn, maybe to 100 ?

I mean, if he donked out with 7x, then there's now an overcard to that on the board and we could also have slowplayed Qx.

I don't play this high but @ the $15s 90% of donk bets are weak or fos - the other 10% are top pair +. I would raise the flop with air or a 7 here since we really don't want any card higher than a 7 to roll off.

@Jack, I dont think hands better than 74 will ever fold imo, and i dont like having to jam the river or smth.

would call pretty often if our kicker was better, with this kicker I think raising river is much better.

Why are you not jaming river? He showed weakness on three streets. Easy game. He has k2, 52 that had a backdoor draw or some other silly stuff.

Sure, but shouldn't these hands be a large part of his range - weak 2x / 7x stuff ?

1 - CS

You need to be aggro in the ST. The edge is so small, the one that dare to take it is gonna win..
