Villain just sat down about an orbit ago and hasn't done much. No stats on him which means he probably isn't a regular, but he bought in for the max so I assume he's competent. Basically I'm lost after the flop raise. Thoughts on all streets appreciated.

You think c/f?

My first instinct was c/c as well. Now that I think about it, I kind of either prefer c/f or b/f.

I think its possible that some hands worse than ours could be playing this way for value (AT,JJ,QQ), that could check through river. There also aren't many draws on flop, other than 78,89, and 78 got there and 89 will now check through.

The backdoor flush also got there, such that 6x might not even raise our river bet.

I'm just making an argument for b/f instead of c/c, given that I think more worse hands are calling than betting themselves, and most hands that we beat and have value against are checking through.

c/f may still be better than b/f though.. hmm....

my reasons prob aren't good, which is why i didn't bother stating them.

it generally has to do with me not wanting kay kay in my folding range here, and other important stuff like how no one ever has anything and everyone likes to bluff.
