Hey guys,
I've been gone for awhile, but am back; just wanted a sanity check on this line. Villain just sat down a few orbits ago and won his stack with a set-over-set.. and seemed to like to push people around.. is this donk-ish?
edit: I should note that he waited a long time before the river push.

I admit it's a very scary board to be playing this hand, but you don't see him holding air here at all? He has overs and is trying to push me off the hand?

a boat, better straight, flush. all you beat is a bluff. even if you called here and he showed 2 pair or something, that is turning his hand essentially into a bluff.

actually after looking at the rest of the hand, you butchered it so bad you shoul dnever have gotten to the river. if u r calling his flop raise it should be to shove over his turn bet to rep the flush (which is actually pretty suicidal w/out a read).

a lot of button opening ranges has to do with the blinds and who limped. if you have weak/tight players in the blinds, its probably profitable to raise otb with 25s, because you will steal a lot, and you will likely take down most flops with a cbet. hey ill probably be seeing you at 100nl shortly!

using a chunk of time before acting can mean a million things, i would never use that to influence the decision

even if you are just 50/50 on a decision? say you are just dead stuck on a decision, you dont let timing be the deciding factor?

So a lot of you think I played this terribly, but I couldn't get over the feeling like he was trying to pull a fast one (like I said, he seemed to be bullying people, a bit too aggressive in the few orbits he was around). I know this is one of those situations where I'm either way ahead or way behind; I'm just having trouble figuring out why most of the people here think it's the latter instead of the former.
Here's a question: Would the river call be better or worse if the river had been a blank (say 2 )
Another question: What does he think I have that I'll stack off with? Granted, I'm just as much of an unknown to him as he is to me...

well you are 160bb deep here keep in mind. i sincerely doubt he is shoving just a set. i get the feeling you are being really results oriented and he showed up with like top 2 or something.

Given the board, I don't see him open-shoving a flush (I could have a weirdly played set) (am I wrong about this?). A boat /is/ a definite possibility, and the one I took most seriously. I agree with Gabe that timing can mean a million different things, but he had been acting fairly quickly before, and I think that, in the aggregate, taking a long time to open-shove more often means a bluff than not...
Though I'm starting to come around to thinking it's a bad play

Isn't the bdfd the only thing that has a chance of being paid off making the "deep" argument valid?

I should hope you can never show up with a boat here because you would have played it awful to get there. No way you don't try to get a set in on that flop.
Also, I think the insta-push would be more indicative of a bluff as that means he has already made his decision before the river. When they think for a bit I tend to believe they're trying to figure how much value they have in their actual hand.

Sorry, I meant to imply that therefore it's not worth calling on the flop?

We hit one of our "outs" and we still don't like our hand. I'm obviously not getting something here. Can you clarify gabe?

It's 12 to call in a 32,5 pot on the flop. Sure not all your outs are good always, but with position and the sd and bdfd I call.
You can't fold on the turn already.
River you can.
