i normally dont play these stakes only 5/10 but i sat at this tbl randomly and posted my bb by mistake. the other player dont play these stakes either and i doubt he woulda pld with me more than 10 hands also lol

hes a 5/10 regular little smart retarded unique but kinda spewy in some situations. he usually pot controls a lot and bets big hands all streets and shutsdown his cbets air on turn kinda often. i expekt him to bet any top pair + on turn and some one card flush draw combo. i might get flamed for this spot her ebut i think is really interesting especially after i check river my hand looks pretty face up like weak 9 or small pp. i think he might fire here air hands, also small pps, straights and 10x and since he bet turn with big hands i dont know what to make of his bet here. can it ever be profitable to call here? oh and about not 3 betting pre i mix it up with call and 3 bet so plz dont comment on 3 bet option.

hhconvertor site was down for me so sorry for posting this mess

i rarely see people take this line as a bluff. if he likes to pot control a lot then he could have some Ks and as well as JJ-QQ, and all 9s and Ts in his range. the K turn is a good bluff card and i think that even ppl who shut down a lot on the turn will fire that card as a bluff with air since its such a bad card for your range (A-high and small pairs). when he checks that turn i expect him to have showdown value most of the time. even when he doesnt, he couldve rivered a T and realized it was best and value bet.

this is a really bad spot for a hero call unless u know villain takes this line as a bluff a lot.

the only other play id consider than folding is a check-raise.
