The_Don90

Just a quick question on this hand. Limped in after being folded round to the blinds, woundering if i could have played it better?

fold preflop or if he is really tight try a small raise to like 500-600.

You played the flop and turn fine but i would check river and try and get to showdown your not really getting any value by betting,

Please fold pre-flop. Limping in the SB with any old garbage is a massive leak for many players (myself included, probably). I'd much rather you raise with 63 off than limp with it (admittedly, he still would have called, but we're not t know that).

As played, I agree with boyle. Flop and turn were fine, we're trying to get value out of what must be the best hand, but when the 5 pairs and counterfeits our second pair, we're almost definitely beat. If we're actually winning, we're very rarely getting that bet called, so we're much better off checking and hoping to get a free showdown/try and make a hero call.

Essentially there's nothing else you can do but hmph that your oppo got lucky on the river. Nothing either of you could have done.
