Pretty easy river call. Villain will show up with worse and we have some serious blockers.

This is made awkward by his bet sizes. Min raising flop and half pot on turn and river doesn't scream strength. But he's still raised a nasty board and followed through, which a hand like QJ shouldn't do. So as usual we're stuck in a spot where we feel like we're bluff catching.

I've seen plenty of bad players play a hand like Ax+pair here on this flop but slowing down by the river.

Because of the bet sizing on the flop and turn showing that's he's not really much of a thinker I would say go for the call, but I suspect many will disagree.

I think it can't be horrendous to call with 2 pair here vs these sizings as people do dumb shit. I'm not super happy about it though and I'd consider a fold very seriously. At NL10 recently I've been running into the nuts a lot with flop min raises.

I don't think we have any important blockers. He never has sets here, KQ I guess might be possible but blocking QJ balances that out. Actually we block some of the hands we want him to have, pairs plus straight draws like JT, KT, AJ, J9 etc.

I think this will turn out to be AT or T9 an awful lot. He raises smaller than he should probably but some tighter players make hands so infrequently they are worried about scaring people off. Plus you might 3bet it which he'd like.

If he is bluffing would he bet smallish sizings all three streets? He can't believe he has FE vs PFR on 3 broadway board. I think he is actually counting on that to get value. I think total air would give up on the river or smash a bigger raise in if he is spazzing. 1/2 PSB says call me guy with TPTK (he has you on lolz AK obvs).
