 I'm not sure if 55 is part of the range I'd regularly make a play preflop there but that's probably irrelevant.

If I count it correctly, the pot on the flop was $18, the pot on the turn was $34, and the pot on the river was $62. Given this, your bet-sizing on the flop and turn are weird.

Edit: On the river, you're offered to call $25 to win $87, so you've got to win about 22% of the time to break even. If he's been caught bluffing on similar under-bets then this is an easy call, and otherwise I'd probably call anyway.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

 your calling 25 to win 87 instead of 62, which makes this an easier call imo

He's caught you bluffing a couple of times or you have caught him bluffing a couple of times?

I think the river is a fold. I don't see villain bluffing this river.
