HERO ????
Standard raise BB vs SB and he just flats.Not sure what to think there as he hasnt been playing badly/passively yet,although only 20 hands so far.
so i CB 3/4 pot and get instantly raised.Pretty sure he doesnt raise there w/top 2 so i just flat as not to lose him.
The turn seemed pretty safe for me to check call so i did.
Im still ranging him as having som weaker Kx,66-1010 and poss 910 for a dbl belly buster
was planning on donking a "safe" river card (2-7,A or K) for a small amount so he wouldnt check back worse kings and maybe feel he could bluff shove,
But i didnt like the 10 so i checked and he bet $4.08 which looked "VALUEY"
What would you guys do here?

without any further information i would fold turn. and certainly fold river as played. even if he raised you on the flop with on oesd or gutshot he now got there or has some showodown value. and all he raised for value has you beat anyway. might even be a fold on the flop but maybe too nitty but seems to be a board that does not get bluffed that often.

The villain is basically unknown, and all we can tell from his 21 hands is that he is probably not completely spewy and can fold some hands preflop. However, this hardly helps us in narrowing his range and we kind have to use the prototypical NL10 player as our read on the player.

I think many players at NL10 will raise their OESD, gutshot +2oc, FD combo draws as well as hands for value, so I think its hard to rule out much with the flop raise besdies its is almost assuredly not air and probably not someone turning a bluff catcher into a bluff. So, I think when the 4heart comes it is almost never anything besides a blank. He may flat your pfr with 44, but I don't think he raises here on this board.

After seeing the turn raise I think this this hand is often 77,KJ, Kxs, with very few hands he is betting ott that we are ahead of besides the weaker suited kings and some straight draw, which I think we can discount because he did not take the free card he could have got by raising the flop. Without a better read on our villain I think we can find a fold on the turn.

As played, we can fold the river. Some of his straight draw hands are now there, as well as some connecter type hands just made 2pair that he was semi bluffing with on flop or turn.

I'd love to see some more input on this hand. This is a spot where I often feel like I should fold but I get married to my TPTK after waiting 25 orbits to see a hand like this come up.

i like your logic and i too get confused when villians take these wierd non-standard lines.I timed down and couldnt come up with a hand he would do this for value and like u said,I just categorized him pretty quickly as an avg 10nl player and i called here.I won the hand and he showed a hand that really didnt make sense on the flop but he turned some equity which is why he barelled again.He had Q8hh

Interesting! You should definitely note he can raise a dry flop with a double BD draw. And then bluff his busted draw on the river.
