Your hand is pretty invulnerable, I like a flat here in position. If he's bluffing, let him bluff the river. Shove would be good if he likes to call light or is a fish.

I would flat ott and bet any river if checked to me or if he bets otr I'd call a non-spade card and would obv shove if a spade comes... There isn't much you can accomplish by raising ott except if you have him dominated , otherwise you're either drawing dead vs boat or drawing to your As ... anyway folding is out of the question

Thanks for replys!
I called indeed for the reasons given and he shipped brick river with QJo.

lol at calling river, u should be shipping it almost always. The question is not about how thin is villain drawing but are there lot of action killers otr. That said, with those bet sizes he ain't gonna fold so doesnt really matter what u do ott.

I like flatting and getting it in on any river.

my stack is a lot less then pot by the river, so he can really only shove, so whether u call or raise river is not really a discussion.

call turn and river call ai. or push.

I think there is a lot of merrit to GII OTT. I don't think he has air here and I don't wanna risk an action killing card.(spade/2/8/Q) This is a little complex, but I think he plays really well vs us OTR, not stacking off that often w/ Qx when a spade falls, folding correctly with flushes when we hit a boat/quads yet always stacking us when we don't.

So even though our hand isn't vulnerable, his hand is and our outs are really obvious.

If he's agro enough, and I think he can have a massive air-ball and follow through a decent %, then obv I flat... but I don't think you see that very much here from a "good" player, especially when you've been calling down light.

That said I 3b the flop unless you guys have a pretty sick c/r, barrel dynamic going on.

I like PD's post very much.
