PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 182 BB (VPIP: 42.86, PFR: 28.57, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)
SB: 97 BB (VPIP: 21.88, PFR: 18.75, 3Bet Preflop: 10.53, Hands: 66)
Hero (BB): 228 BB
UTG: 70.5 BB (VPIP: 14.29, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)
MP: 101.5 BB (VPIP: 27.78, PFR: 27.78, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 18)
CO: 50.5 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q

fold, MP raises to 3 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls 2 BB

Flop: (6.5 BB, 2 players) Q

Hero checks, MP bets 3.5 BB, Hero calls 3.5 BB

Turn: (13.5 BB, 2 players) J

Hero checks, MP bets 7 BB, Hero calls 7 BB

River: (27.5 BB, 2 players) 2

Hero bets 14.5 BB, MP raises to 43.5 BB, Hero calls 29 BB

Can we find a fold here? We probably don't raise the turn and river is where he showed aggression on a blank card

I feel like when villain raises on river in 2NL, villain is really strong. V is probably not reraising with a hand worse than top two or raising as a bluf.. I think a check call or bet fold on river

This looks good. I might size river a bit bigger to not get raised.

Agreed. I think at these stakes this is almost never a bluff (for this sizing). It's either a better hand or a hand that incorrectly thinks it's better, but almost never a bluff. Bet/fold is way better than check/call though.

You should be betting ~17-18 and folding to a raise. As played it's close in terms of call/fold. The pricing is incredible, but at these stakes, I don't hate a fold. So if it helps, I don't think it's a big EV difference either way between call/fold.

River makes no sense. You don't bet into a stronger range, check/call!
