Flop: ($0.37) Q, 2, J (2 players)
CO bets $0.23, Hero calls $0.23

Turn: ($0.83) 10 (2 players)
CO bets $0.53, Hero calls $0.53

River: ($1.89) 4 (2 players)
CO bets $1.21 Hero ??


So I guess the post is pretty explicit so far so ill just add my thought process for the ones actually reading this. Im inclined towards a fold here since the only hand I see him doing this (and that we are ahead of) is AQ (AQx - 60-80% rest AQo). Other than this I think we are behind and we can call all sets and made flushes and fold tptk and two pairs.
EDIT: and straights ofc
Thoughts?

I'd fold. I expect him to have the flush, AK, or 22 fairly often here.

I m not sure if pre is all that standard imo its a fold.

AP-We dont have sets only 22 if thats even call pre very few flushes bunch of Qx so if we fold QJ and better we are folding like 70%+ which is not good strategy.

What he said.

Also, He could have plenty of hands like Qxh that raised trying to get value for when the flush came in.

You have to be good ~30% of the time, and I think you definitely are in this spot. Folding is not an option, he could even have KxTh/KhTx and is bluffing the river.

Would fold PF but probably call vs. a 2x.

As played I don't see how we can fold river with one of the better hands in our range. We can't have sets except 22, we can't have straights, and most of the flushes we could have are probably going to 3-bet PF.

I think most players are not tripplebarrelbluffing on monotone boards very often so I think we can overfold and not care about minimum defence frequency

This kind of sums up my thinking here. Minimum defense frequency can really hurt you in spots where players just don't have it.

I'd also like to point out that if we are up against a player who is barreling a lot it does make sense to trap with the flush even if it isn't the nut flush when they are aggressive enough.

Yeah since raises on monotone board are really respected
