4 handed:

utg (very loose/aggro and spewy)
hero (TAG image)
i was dealt Kc,Ks on the button.

UTG raises, i 3 bet from the button, sb fold, bb fold, utg 4 bets, i flat..

i put her range at A x, plus some middle pp's ( i saw her earlier in the session just flat a 3 bet with KK and AA)

flop

10h,8h,4h

utg donk bets, i raise, utg flats

turn: 7h

utg bets, i call

(side note: she was starring me down the whole time tying to intimidate me,putting in her chips rapidly and slamming them down)

river: 2c

utg bets, i call

she tables Ac 10c

obviously i won the pot with KK (no heart)

my question is should i have raised the river with the 2 of clubs being a total brick since i didnt think she had a heart?

That's your question?

always love a great first response to a hilarious op and given it's a gobbo post to, i declare LINNING!!

very well done gobbo.

Ummm.. if you want good advice on a decision, don't show the results. That way, we'll give advice on how we'd play with the info available to you at the time of the decision.

Anyhow, here's an attempt:

Honestly, the 2 obvious possibilities on the turn are "I am showdown bound so I cam calling no matter what happens on the river" or "JFC, villain must have frush, I fold". Villain is like never folding a frush to a raise, so bluffing here is dumb.

But raising the river? I mean, is your plan to raise / fold? If so, I guess good for you on the aggression, but honestly, if no better hand can fold to a raise (maybe lol T8 2 pairs), and no worse hand can call, both of which seem roughly true here, then the raise is just pure spew.

So... given that villain is roughly 50/50 a priori to have a in their hand, if I assume they'll bluff 100% of these spots, I call down. If I assume they never bluff, I fold. In the middle, well I'll let you do the math on what fraction of time villain needs to bluff in this spot for a call-down to be worthwhile, but once you commit do that, DO NOT RAISE THE RIVER.

nice hand.

depending on the preflop cap at the casino, another raise may be in order.

Her flop bet is not a donk. Her turn bet is a donk. DUCY

Villain being loose, aggro, and spewy tilts the balance towards a calldown, not a raise.

Given the preflop range you put villain on, why not five-bet? You've got a great hand in position, and you're going to a showdown. Get the bets in before the board screws everything up.

I don't think we should encourage threads like this. Granted, the bar for MSLHE strat threads is slightly lower than it used to be, but this still comes in way underneath it.
