 Methinks you are beat here. I'd fold.

I muck that.

Really looks like a slowplay that realized you had a big hand.

 Given the preflop action, 33 makes sense, but A4 wouldn't surprise me either.

I call like a donkey (I don't know why... I was pretty much 100% sure I was beat)

Villain shows 99 and I puke.

You were getting 3 to 1 on your money on the river. Thats pretty enticing. When I'm getting those kind of odds, I typically call w/ overpair.

Personally, I dont think the call was the problem. You bet 40% of a full buy in on the river on a hand that wasn't that strong. It looks like you were trying to protect your hand, but that doesnt accomplish that. If he is stronger, he raises you all in, if he is weaker he folds.

Personally, I would have bet about 25 on the river, then called a minimum reraise, but folded to an all in.

I like your line on the river, thanks.

Check river or make a smaller bet unless this guy is a total donk.

Along with this, what about a bigger turn bet?
