im calling - id need some history or for the guy to know how i play here to muck.
This is a standard spot where hes likely to be bluffing 55 or 88 as much as anything good
Calling and mucking to a better hand here is not going to have much effect on your bbs/100 IMO

calling 100% of the time.
we check the turn because we want villain to do this.

QQ is the only hand you can really have that can call this, so I would. I dunno how good brtn is though, if he's more brainless you can probably fold and assume he was going for a turn c/r with a monster.

Is betting on the turn that bad ? As played, i'd call up to PSB for sure unless villain is a super passive nit like some meh regulars on stars.

hmm well it's either he's bluffing, or he has a monster that he's trying to get value from my overpairs with.
sounds like everyone thinks his bluffing frequency will be high enough to warrant a call. Seemed close to me.
We have a lot of history but i'm not sure how to describe it... mostly i've been running real good against him and almost every hand for more than $25 seems to involve a nonstandard line from one or both of us. I'm not 100% sure how that affects this hand.

this is a very common line that i take - it's the best way to get two streets of value from villain. Excellent check on turn on turn vs a guy you have history with... shows a lot of weakness and turns our over pair into a bluff catcher.

Aren't you forced to call the river because you checked the turn? Couldn't he play AJ/TT this way?
|
|
Playing big pots at small stakes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
a) who calls AJ in the blinds vs an EP raise?
b) TT can be played this way but he's turning his hand into a bluff on the river. The only hands he's doing this for value with are sets, KK, AA, maybe 76/87 if he's into playing those OOP.
damn shoulda called

meh fold still isn't horrible because there's not actually much in his range that he can turn into a bluff.

OP, your user name should be changed to: TwoStreets
Use it as a guideline from now on when trying to get value from over pairs.
