Bet the river, fold to a massive raise

Also, don't show that you're willing to make big laydowns like that... esp at this level where they'll just push all in all the time on you

yea the only way id check that river is to get induce an aggressive opponent to bluff if the river card is different and i think he missed his flush draw. Id bet somewhere aroung 3/4 pot. Probably slightly over 3/4. They way you are showing strength and you can fold to a reraise.
If you check you are putting up a big flashing for sale sign that will make an aggressive player bet with pretty much anything.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

bigspenda73: But how much did you win?
