pocketfours will become famous soon enough

I think I played this reasonably, but I would like to hear some comments...

The game was not overly aggressive, both were mostly playing solid. Villain did CC pre quite often and then folded to a cbet, which was why I decided to play this one slow.

Any thoughts?

bet flop, bet turn, shove river.

If he's calling a lot OOP and not defending raise 100% of hands pre and cbet every flop until he adjusts.

Sure that's standard, but was my play atrocious?

At very high stakes I much rather like to keep them making their mistake when I find one, and that's rare against someone who is a regular at 10 000nl like this villain. Besides, I'm sure he would adjust in a microsecond.

Sometimes I even start to make the same mistake myself (albeit with a smaller freqency), just to keep villain from adjusting. I just mean that if I'm comfortable with the status quo/flow of the game, I try to do very little to change it.

Against a CC'ing mid stakes donk I would do exactly what you suggest, but at this level I assume villain thinks he has some good reason for playing the way he does and is capable of adjusting fast if he thinks it's necessary.

In this hand villain called the river with Jc4c. Not easy to fold that with the line I took, although all he could beat was a bluff.
