    the min raise seemed like A10 - Q10 or any 10 really. I had played it quite passively so I think he thought his 10 was good... No real reads.

    If I raise and get shoved I have to be behind.

    thoughts?

    Hmm - seems odd that they would check behind on the turn if they had AQ, maybe they check a FH to induce a bet on the river but that seems quite a bad play as well given it makes it harder to get their whole stack in.

    Then again, min-raising has a tendency to pretty spew from unknown players.

    I don't think you can fold given the pot odds, but I would opt to snap-call this.

    Probably missing some value against certain oppos who will punt AT and happily call if you shove, but I think it's spewy over the long term to raise the 2nd nut straight on a paired board.

    I would be check calling the river here. Therefore you eliminate getting jammed on. you are prepared to bet four pounds here so if he has a ten his bet would be around that therefore you get to showdown. You are also not losing value with this play as its a dangerous board and your not certain your winning

    Its not really thattttt dangerous tho is it? If you're checking this long term you're throwing a lot of £££ down the toilet sir.

    I dont see no problem betting, but folding if you think you;re beat. Here the re-raise is miniscule, so snap the fish off.
