It's obviously a non-standard line. Why post hands where I think I played it well, when I can post hands that I might played poorly?
I didnt mean that as in insult at all. I think you play good. And I wasnt being sarcastic...I do commend you on posting this hand. Honestly I think Id be a little embarrassed to but I think youve built up enough "cred" here and it is an interesting hand.
Also its worth noting that this is a 40/80 hand and not a 20/40 hand. I think the river fold is way more defensible in a 20 game where river bluff raises like this rarely happen. 40 regs are certainly capable of this, ESPECIALLY against someone like jdr who is sort of known to bet/fold these sort of spots. I think perhaps you underestimate the typical opponent a little bit.
It looks like villain has a monster or air. A naked queen is never taking this line after the turn action. Plus the fact that we just called pre I think youve gotta put one more bet in and show down.
