Unguarded for Chez is far from a fair trade. UG crushes Stars midstakes limit 6max games and Chez 10 tables and makes his rakeback $. Probably a -2BB/100 for the table.
Glad Chris pointed out that you have a timing tell. Take your time joe.
Joe, remember to get that spicyf thread

I play HUHU around these stakes.
I've only got 33 hands where the flop checked around, I B/C turn, and X/C river.
I'm losing 80 BB/100, but a lot of those are where villain sucked out to a better pair on the river.
As for what type of hands I see, it's a very wide spectrum over the hands I've played. Filtering for just the flop and turn action, sometimes it's the nuts, sometimes it's a FSDR, sometimes it's random air which may or may not barrel.
I think it's most important to figure out what it means for the specific opponent as opposed to drawing generalizations. In HUHU, I'm pretty scared when someone who c-bets 99% checks back something like a paired or Ace-high flop, but not so much for someone who c-bets only 50% and I've seen often folds to turn leads.

I like bet/calling the turn and check/folding river UIP against a reasonably thinking player who won't mindlessly brl the river.
Is this hand to vulnerable to go for a CR on the turn? Ace high probably bets now and might pay off.

Agree. I think Unguarded is a former DC member.

Is paying off here on the river correct as played?
What are you putting villian on to where you would call down UIP if a blank hit the river?

I'm sure these guys have history but what are your thoughts about INRI completing while knife is the bb? is this the standard line vs aggro regs bvb now? Has everyone been watching Deathdonkey vids?

you trailed off here as to why you check behind. Are we afraid of a c/c c/r line from Ahigh, 9T that got there or club draws semibluffing? furthermore, once we've checked we're never looking to fold anything ever no matter the river?

so you're saying that a player like knife420 is going to c/c and reevaluate the river with made hands 9 < there?

Definitely should have mentioned this as well, as it went through my head, but felt like the discussion was already going long on this one and I knew we wanted to get through a fair bit. I think its not bad at all.

If you call you are putting him on a total airball, I'd fold river.

Correct, I think we get CRed a not-happy amount of the time, and its by a range that will make our decision difficult. It's also a decent board to induce a river bluff since our hand looks like a small pair or king high and a lot of guys will try to bluff us off those. I would call any river if I checked behind yeah.
