    One thing to seriously consider before putting money into any investment that is not risk-free to loss is:

    Range guesstimate: 55+, KQ+

    Since he seems to be taking a pretty passive line it looks like a monster/draw/weaker pair hand. Given the c/c on the turn and another check on the river I wouldn't...

    I think that both of you having flushed on the river, while not impossible, is just so unlikely that I can't see getting away from this hand.

    Judging by stacks this is likely a $0.50/$1 table and the converter doesn't reflect that properly.

    Your line is standard but I wouldn't expect to win here on the river much at all...your hand is pretty obvious (missed overs +/- draw) and if he was bluffing the river with a missed draw/air frankly...

    Pretty sure he said he pushed preflop and just took a bad beat...given his situation this was the right play and the results can be disregarded in that light.

    Playing 80% of his hands makes it pretty hard to guess...but based solely on his river play I'd lean towards something like

    AA, Axs flush, 78s flush, QQ, Q6o

    Anywhere close?
