PokerStars - 40/80 NL (3 max) - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BB: 7.15 BB
Hero (SB): 11.6 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 5

Hero calls 0.5 BB, BB checks

Flop: (2 BB, 2 players) T

BB checks, Hero checks

Turn: (2 BB, 2 players) 9

BB bets 1 BB, Hero calls 1 BB

River: (4 BB, 2 players) 3

BB bets 2 BB, Hero ?

What is your opinion? I was tempted to call because he would bet for protection on the flop a k and wouldn't double barrel a T. At the same time he would bet bigger on the river a flush and straight.

plenty of Kx be checking OTF i think and delay+barrels. stronger Tx will play like this as i see no reason to check the river once i bet turn w Tx.

i fold.

/// I'd call A9o+ A6s+ 55+ ///

I don't think that plenty of k are giving a free card.
Btw I forgot to mention that a few hands before he potted on the river on a double paired board with air.

range wise looks like a call, but there are some problems, BB should have couple Kx at best and weak Tx doesn't play like this, but average fish will have more Kx than they should and also will play more Tx this way, so I guess fold should be better.

Good to know villain is capable of big bluffs, but in this case imo his probing ranges are more important and also I wouldnt assume every fish will lead flop with Kx

I definitely am not expecting fish to lead a lot of their KX on this flop. If that were true, then flop is a very easy Cbet for us imo.
