Check behind on the turn. As played I fold river.

Why check? He def calls with worse. It was 50/10 type of guy. He's calling with Qx, most of Xc hands. 56 maybe.

Even if he´s a 50/10 player, I doubt that he´ll call 3/4 pot with worse when there´s an overcard and a flush on board. Also, your hand isn´t very strong and you wanna exercise some pot control here so you don´t get into the river spot you got yourself into. As for river, I don´t see him ever shoving worse.

Are you serious? Would you really double barrel with air here against 50/10?

That´s not what I said. I said that once he calls your turnbet and then shoves the river, he can beat a weak top pair.

Anywayz. He had KQ with no clubs. But I was really confused on the river and maybe that's coz I bet the turn.

But at the same time he could be ezly turning pair + missed fd into a bluff. Donks do stupid **** all the time.

Nice hand, make a note:-) I stand by my reasoning though, I think you´re behind here most of the time.

If you confidently bet the turn - snapcall the river on this card.

I play it the same against a fish.

why are you trying to make sense of a player who doesn't seem competent at all and only has 50BB? If you're sure he calls with worse on the turn i think the river call is trivial.

I think this river is a snap fold since I think we rarely will be shown worse hands and often a flush or some ******ed rivered 2pair versus a fish.
