NL4 - Bet size on river?

edited February 2012 in The Poker Clinic
Went for a big overbet here, should I be value shoving in this spot, or just doing what I did?

    Playing the board lol

    I think it's fine mate but if you perceive him as REALLY bad then possibly think about just shoving.

    Your bet won you an extra 52p.

    Chol31 only has to call your shove about 10% of the time for a similar return (and bankster about 20% of the time).

    Of course, there is small chance you are behind here. And you may stand to lose a wee bit in rake if the pot is split.

    But on balance, I would say it's definitely worth a shove here. I'd say you are more than 10% or 20% to be called with worse here as it looks so much like an attempt to steal a split pot.
