The river bet 0f $106 was to put him all-in.

5 handed and no reads?

Flop raise is fine if you play stronger hands like that.

Turn bet really comes down to if you think you have folding equity here. With lots of money behind and 2 dirty draws, you're not giving up much by passing on the free card.

Check turn. He has half a stack, so probably a donkey, which means you probably don't have very much FE at all on the turn getting 3-1. If he had a psb left, then I'd like it much better, but still would be hesitant about pushing b/c of the paired board. Just calling the flop donk is another good option too.

Fnord, are you back playing six max, or still doing FR?

I would check the turn, I doubt he folds to a push and you have a lot of outs here.

I like the flop play, but if he's gonna check the turn, take the free card.
