This guy saw me stack off way too light twice against other tags and generally play like shit and kind of maniacal
it's like I can't put the ace in his range, but is he going to bluff 2x pot against me after I've shown a willingness to felt? These spots make me hate NL because I'd call a pot size bet SCRATCH THAT IT'S BECAUSE I'M BAD

Why do you check the turn?
Folding seems fine to me.

Well, you didn't list stats, but this could be something as strong as AsQs, he might not be a 3bettor. 1/2 PSB on turn could easily be NF trying to string you along, then an "oh fuck I missed value" push. Could also be 7s9s/Qs9s praying you have the As.
From my experience so far, don't stop betting when you have a shit ton of equity.

We are only checking this river because we want to call any bet. This is a standard bluff catcher/minimizing loss to better hands line by us on river.

and btw, lots of (bad) regs habitually dont 3bet AK, so you cant take ak/aq/qsqx etc out of his range.
lol i just noticed that you have the Ks, i was wondering why everyone said to call... they're right.
and zomg stack off on turn.

Why does everyone hate a fold??? I think a fold is good here. Also bet turn and maybe bet river for value depending on villain.
It's all very well saying I checked because I have a bluffcatcher but when a 50nl player overbet shoves 2x pot and we have a history of calling down light he isn't bluffing near enough imo. We can definitely call a 2/3rds pot bet, maybe even pot but 2x pot  I dont think so.

actually I asked him and he told me he didn't have shit
he wasn't levelling either, he's the type that would bet a little with the nuts just to "guarantee" a call and bet high as a bluff to make me fold
then I felt retarded

The bold comments in combination make it seem like you have made up an excuse (believing him, he wouldn't level you, etc.) to protect your ego from worrying about folding the best hand. You'll retort assuring me that this is not the case, though, which is pretty standard.

iopq, based on the sample size of this hand, you effing suck at FR NL hold'em. Stop schooling with all the other nits and learn the game.
Spoon, it's a nice that you're trying to scatch away at his ego to help him to learn! when are you gonna use that perception on yourself, ya big gay!

b/c 50nl FR regs bluff so much, and when they do it's usually for 2x the pot right?

My comment was a continuation of an ongoing conversation I've had with iopq for quite a while now, and I've used "that perception" on myself since I was about 14. There are a lot of concepts in performance psychology that I've written about (including this) here on FTR.

|
If my comments were analyzed in the context of the other stuff I've posted here discussing psychological matters then it would make perfect sense to an outsider, and we both know that I'm never particularly concerned with how my comments appear to others, only the potential gains it gives the person I'm discussing with. Right now it's evident that psychological matters (and difficult ones to address at that) are holding iopq back, so I'm doing what I can to help, as always.

I feel a need to clarify what I meant by the last thing I said here: "which is pretty standard." What I meant was that this is a pretty standard type of thing that happens in the thought processes of most players. When we encounter difficult or tense situations in anything, our minds often start throwing out things for us to latch onto in order to alleviate the tension in one way or another, and fairly often these things our minds throw out for us to grab onto don't make much sense nor do they hold up to analysis. This has the potential to happen while the situation is in the present (ie: when it's our turn to act on the river) and afterward as our minds try to justify our actions and give us reasons to not feel bad/stupid.
Tommy Angelo's book Elements of Poker touches on this indirectly in a number of places as well. You can improve on this type of thing by practicing maintaining the tension in situations where it's convenient, like counting slowly to 10 before you scratch your nose the next time it itches. I talked about similar stuff in this thread: http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...go-t76505.html
These types of things are usually really difficult to discuss just because of the nature of the thing and how easy it is to become defensive and close up to learning. But anyway, there's some stuff to read if you want to jump in. If not, that's cool too.

Okay now I think you were referring to what I would think about the hand if I was a 3rd person? I'm not sure what you're asking me. 
P.S. You're liberal scum. <3

wtf do you mean protecting my ego
I posted a hand that I played horribly on the turn
I also posted that I THINK I made the wrong decision on the river too
I asked him about what he had and he said that he'd bet half pot with the nuts because he isn't greedy
it would be an epic level if he appeared to be this stupid
like seriously, if he made up "I'm not greedy" to level me he's far superior to me in life, poker and everything

this is the part of your comment that I don't understand
how do I protect my ego by finding out after that I probably had the best hand?
if I wanted to protect my ego, I would say "after the hand he told me he had the ace and that he only shoves with the nuts, never as a bluff"

1. Villain saying something right after the hand doesn't prove that he would only shove with a bluff.
2. You disagree with 1 suggesting you have some previous knowledge that he's not lying about that since he would only shove a bluff.
3. The assessment made in 2 cannot be true because you folded the river, and because you ask "is he going to bluff 2x pot against me after I've shown a willingness to felt?" in the OP.
4. The only motive you could have to lie about 2 would be to clarify 1 so you no longer have to deal with the "what if I was wrong" (which is much harder to deal with than latching onto a supposed reason that you were wrong).
5. Some good ways to deal with 4 are addressed above in my previous posts.

1. This is true, but I can't prove it either way.
2. This doesn't follow, your logic fails on step 2
while it is possible he would lie, his comment "I am not greedy" is such an intricate level that I read that as sincerity unless he is VERY tricky in chat
3. What do you mean it cannot be true? It could be true or it could be false. If it cannot be true, that means that YOU ARE SURE IT IS FALSE. If you are sure it is false, you are the villain in the hand
nicely played spoon, now can I have my $20 back?

ohhhh hey i should really read OP's more carefully. I thought it was like a PSB on the river.
If he's reg or nitty in any way (which all 50nl regs are) then fold. If he's a maniac/total unknown then call.
lalala ego warz on FTR.

Well, I actually talked to the guy but I didn't save the chat log. He's not a good reg or anything. How are you guys so sure that I'm wrong here? It blows my mind that Spoon would say that "The assessment made in 2 cannot be true"
how can you say that? I'd say my assessment has at least a 1% chance of being true
