Button is Lukie aka Lukieplaya aka Lukkake aka Fish. We have both been playing a similar TAg game, staying out of each others way for the most part. Flop check is to mix it up plus a little pot control, not standard for me, but I'll do it once in a while. Turn call is standard I think given flop check. Now I hit my gin card on the river. Who likes betting? Who likes checking? If you bet, how much?

Bet the river, like $100, maybe $150. He checks behind here a lot unless you think he's FoS and will fire again.

only hand lukie, if hes playing good, can have is 33 or bluff. i think a check/raise is good here alot because he wont pay you off with 333 much (hes a nit) and he might bluff a badly played flush draw.

c/r seems very sexy here. villain will be hard-pressed to call a decent hand w anything you beat, maybe a crying call from a set but I don't see anything else calling a decent bet.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Lukie is on a distinguished road
bdawg was just killing me tonight. By the way, I like the way you played the hand in the OP on every street, knowledge of the hole cards and river action aside.

Fnord, what do you put Lukie on? Also, how often do you think he has a hand that actually will pay off a value-bet here?

My thought process in checking was that he probably doesn't pay me off with a hand like 2-pair (maybe a set but idk), but I felt certain that IF he had a busted draw or total air, he would bet this river close to 100% of the time, because my turn + river line looks like a weak hand trying to get to showdown. Plus his flop check and turn raise does make a bluff more likely IMO, although I do know he is capable of checking behind a big hand on the flop (any good player should be).
