River Hero (ish) Call

Lambert180

Villian is fairly loose pre, doesn't do anything too funky (most of the time) but is pretty aggro postflop. Definitely isn't the type to just check/fold a missed draw if he thinks he can nick the pot.

Confident he bluffs his missed FDs/straight draws, but do you think there are enough combos of these? I think he'd check back hands like TT/JJ if he's called down with them til now but bets some Qx, obv Kx, obv houses if he someone has one....

I just struggle with combinatronics with massive ranges.

Is this a pretty standard call?

think its kinda standard call tbh he could have up n down draw on the flop n barreling 3 streets with 10 jack 

or a flush draw n barreling 3 streets i would call here aswell does depend who its against 

up against a unkown i could find a fold here

i think we are ahead here more times then not   look at the board   on flop he could easily have 2 clubs or   10 jack or ace 10 etc

If he's good you should probably be folding here. Bad players will just always bluff here if they have a missed draw whereas good players will realise that it's a pretty bad spot to bluff too often because none of the draws got there and you'll have a bluff catcher fairly often. Also depends on how wide you think villain will value bet. Without much info on villain I like to call here early on because the info gained will probably be pretty useful and the call itself is probably fine in a vacuum anyway.

Cheers folks.

FWIW, he had JTo but you all know I was good or it wouldn't be here, right?

But yeah obv just cos I was good doesn't mean it was a good call so just seeing what people thought.

Would never title this as a hero or hero-Ish call... I would just say its a shy te bet on the end, and a standard check call!
