    Default 1/2 - bluff catcher facing overbet on river

    Limper is a big fish, villain is an aggro, losing reg, running 24/22/4.7, stealing button 65% over a decent sample. No relevant history.

    River is the question but beratement on earlier streets is fine too.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    saw flop

    UTG ($297.05)
    MP ($153.15)
    Button ($203)
    SB ($183.20)
    Hero (BB) ($213.75)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with A, J
    1 fold, MP calls $2, Button bets $8, 1 fold, Hero calls $6, 1 fold

    Flop: ($19) 6, A, 7 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $14, Hero calls $14

    Turn: ($47) Q (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button checks

    River: ($47) 5 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $78, Hero...

    He's not repping anything so I'd call. Shoving may be better vs a better player.

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    I would fold or 3bet pre and would definitely not call his river overbet. He doesn't think that you are especially weak.

    don't you think flatting seems ok since we dominate the fish and btn's huge ranges?

    seems like the flop is an easy raise for value.

    I call the river cuz I suck and have him show me 98. I actually think the turn is the most interesting spot.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    I would fold this river if he's a thinking player at all. He realizes his line makes no sense and he's over-betting to make it look even more FoS so you look him up.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see 89 or 555 here. Maybe some sort of two pair with a 5 in it sometimes too.

    this hand seems like typical example of leveling

    - I have same opinion like griffey, so I would fold it

    What do you think about b/f turn instead of c/c?

    it's HU, so I think villain will barrel this turn a lot - I would c/c

    I think you'r beat. Whether he hit a straight, two-pair, or a set on the river or the flush on the turn, this is a folder. Big overbets on the river are rarely bluffs. Eat your $22 loss and not turn it into a $100 loss.
