PF : Kkkkkk

F : Std

T : so we get a min raise on a board that really didn't change the dynamic all too much. 12/8 is like my favorite nit because their range is so easy, 22+ and AK/AQ sometimes AJ / broadway SC?

The 5 is rough on the situation simply b/c you have to know did he really slow play pocket 5's, or was he just playing some lucky SC? I like to know others rationale on the situation tbh. As played I'm okay with a flat.

R : Is this blocker? What's he shoving compared to a min raise on the turn? I most likely C/F given the 6 completes FD / SD's, the board is paired and if he was smart enough to min raise the aggressor then note it up and keep playing.

Standard to the turn.

On the turn this is a fold though, and its not even close.

OK, if the villain is a donkey at 5nl, he doesn't have any clue on the planet that you might have an ace by the turn, then your line makes some sense.

Otherwise, he has you beat on the turn and you fold. The river bet is useless, if you had a FH or flush on the turn, you would have raised, not called. He's way too strong on the river that a blocking bet is going to slow him down.

I tend to agree. You need to decide right there if you are going with this hand. You can't flat this raise OOP with that drawy, paired board.

River bet is awful.
