Why do you push the river will he fold a king at this point?

I would either dump or call behind on the river either way.

if the SB bet 290, how did you call 814 all in?

Its an error on the converter, it puts a raise all in on the river as a call for some reason.

Marq

I would flat call the river.

I reckon calling is worst here, it doesnt look like a bluff

Marq

Why would you say that it doesn't look like a bluff?

I mean his opponent doesnt seem to be bluffing and he isnt value betting a worse hand so calling is the worst of the three available options.

I don't like it. What are you trying to represent here, a 7? It doesn't look convincing the way you've just called the turn and raised the river. Also his river bet seems more like a value bet than a defensive bet and he's getting 3 to 1 on the call.

Well I'm sure that I dont have the best hand, and yeah, look how dry the board is ... how can he call with KQ or KJ, and for sure he drops 99/TT.

PS - I dont do this move very often, and it was probably inspired from reading BBuddys recent thread on 2+2. If you were villain, would you call with AK? KQ? KJ?

What would you think I had given the action?

Lets say that you were villain, and had KQs here ... what would you think when you got raised like this on the river?

padraig_f

When you call the turn I'd put you on a probable king. I'd expect you to raise on the turn with a set and expect you not to raise on the river with a king, so the action just seems a bit funny. On the river I'd say you either had a full house or were bluffing.

Results: Villain thought for about a month, and finally folded.
