Wow, don't understand the call on the river there.

Nor why he attacked the turn.

I agree with Dwarfmann - just does not make sense.

Maybe (s)he was paying for information?
If you put all your faith in the river, you are up shit's creek

River call = big pot (13.5 bets). If your opponent will semi-bluff raise the turn and bluff the river more than 7% of the time, it's a profitable one. I've made similar calls and won occasionally. Very opponent dependent.

Note that he cold-called the turn rather than led the turn (turn bettor folded to the raise).

Oh yeah, read the history wrong and mistaked him for the BB.

My bad.

 Flop call was marginal; but your read on him having two overs was really good. Although his two overs probably beat your two overs, I usually like to see the turn card here for cheap anyway. Would a free-card play work out here you think?

And I would have to say, that would be one of the dumbest river calls i've seen, not to mention a marginal flop call by him as well. He's obviously dominated and the turn did give him more outs to see the river. The river call, was, well, somewhat calling-stationish. He wanted to see what fnord had and I imagine he payed for his information.
