    Its definately a raise for value and i dont think them hands do fold.  You ever here of the zebo theory or something like that noone ever folds a full house

    It's an interesting theory but I bet someone folds a 2 to that river raise.

    im c-betting flop, but as played having under repped your hand so far i like the value raise on the river tbh, and with those pot odds i am not folding

    If he's that polarized where's the value in raising the river?

    Flat river!

    when he has a 7, i am in the same boat as bearly here random/weak player go nuts with f/h in these spots.

    If he makes it £5 on the river then maybe raise for value propably around 11-17 dont think im raising when he pots 

    Not calling the shove

    if youve called and he shows 78 then withdraw that £32 and spend it wisely

    true pot maybe a call
    don't mind the raise either, just a bummer when oppo shoves

    my first post nuts or nothing is probably not true, (posts of mine seem very contradicting at times :S) he could have JJ but other than a single A, jj is the top of villains range and he played that sheepishly, 99, 88 are there and even a 7, (i am not going to do the math, as its fookin boring) looking at pot odds when we raise if we can say that this guy does this with 88,99 its a call(getting better than 2-1), add a 7 to the mix, (meaning hes a tard) its a snap call.

    Bearly played this well imo, folding river is not even close imo (maybe coz im a fish :)).

    Depends how good oppo is to raise like this on river w/JJ or even QQ.
    A lot also depends on how they play against Bearly pre and post.
    It could be oppo just puts bearly on the kind of pr he has and abso takes the mick )
    Could even be 88 looking for call from K high or like to fold out better but this is very unlikely imo.

    face it we probabaly only beating a bluff or a drunken 7 ) lol
    Given that fact it's a random the shove could be anything, I am just rambling )
    It matters how bad random is, random could equally turn up with 88 or an A )

    fink wine with dinner was a mistake
