KQ 10NL

Would love your thoughts on this one! SB is a weak player

Preflop - Decided to squeeze vs. BTN open and SB call. I expect to get it through here a lot. SB as mentioned, isn't the best so if we go HU with him OOP that's fine.

Flop - That's dandy! Top 2 pair in squeezed pot! Not too sure about my sizing here... Seeing as we're deeper, would bigger be better?

Turn - Standard value bet

River - Interestingggggg... Backdoor hearts gets there, JT gets there and also AQ beats us... AK too but I'd expect him to 3bet the initial raiser PF with that. What can he be doing this with that called all the way to here? We showed crazy strength throughout the hand. Could this be just a blocker bet? Obviously folding is out of the question... The main question is, SHOULD WE RAISE the river for value? Shove for his remaining $6? Even a min raise? We can get value from KJ & QT... Other than that...??? He's not repping much with this sizing though... Confusing!

Everything gets there on the river, in my head I want to check this hand back and hope we win at SD, like you said so many draws and two pairs beat us now.

I just call and hope he turns up with something like AJ/AT, I don't see any reason to shove for their final $6 as I never expect them to call with worse (AJ/AT folding to a jam).

i agree with @harvie i don't think we should ship because he doesn't call anything worst but i'm also not folding so just call and see his ATo

Bet bigger otf, he is a fish and calling the same for 1.8. Turn much better sizzing and river is a sigh call and know his call OTT was so -EV if he only gets 3 OTR, implied odds make it a -EV call with draws I believe Smile

I would bet bigger on the flop and a tad less on the turn.

Once he donks the river like this it's debatable if we can hero fold with everything getting there. You say he's a weak player but in what way? Passive?

Given that we'd expect him to shove if he donks his nutted hands I'd still call the $3 but I'm not happy about it.
