Do we call this river?

(1/2) > >>

shozboy1:
Another river decision. Opinions would be welcome as to what others would do in this spot. Would you call? He has stats of 30/25 over only 40 or so hands. Not shown down any big bluffs. Mostly straightforward raises and cbets to take it down

LongshanksED:
calling the river as played but dont think id have got that far

40 hands isnt a big enough sample to take stats from imo

i"d have possibly re raised pre - maybe $5

on flop id call the standard c bet

id check turn behind to keep pot from spiralling out of control

going by your hand history you only habve $24 ish left and pot is $20 by the river - gotta call and if he has a set or 2 pair then so be it

the big shove isnt wanting called imo, but then it could be a move with a strong hand if he has only top pair beat and he put you on AK then its a good move

Marty719:
30/25 is soooo laggy in f/r.  Def 3b pre in position!!

As played - dnt even think the river is close.  I highly doubt we are ahead of his river shoving range.  I would also bet a little bigger on the turn.  We are betting as a semi-bluff, but the purpose of the bet is really to win the pot right there.

WYoung83:
 You need at least 1000 hands on someone before you can really get a feel for how they are playing imo. You only have about 60-70 bbs, i would of repoped pre and try to get it in if possible pre with AKs, or on flop with whatever comes down. Any way, as you played it, with the A on river Dont slow roll the other guy its bad Karma.  :)

Marty719:
As an added point - dnt short stack.  All u achieve is losing value.  Auto top-up ftw.
