Played cash at Gala Birmingham this evening hoping their £55 bank holiday tournament would lead to recreational cash game line ups. Fresh to the table and no recognisable faces. Villain is aged around mid 50's.

UTG i open  Ahrt Ks to £8. 5 callers to the flop.

Flop Qh 4c 3d checks all the way through.  

Turn  Ac

Check, i bet out £25. Young chinese girl calls, villain hesitates slightly with a short chip fiddle then calls. An initial checker calls.

River  Qc (pot ~£140)

Check, I check (ok?)
Girl checks, then villain last to act fairly quickly stacks his chips and jams for £71.

Fold, comes to me.

You?

I'm mainly unsure with deciding likelihood he has a flush here vs the price we're getting, so just thought i'd get a quick check.

Turbo snap muck, This is a flush/Qx almost always. Not many draws left for him to bluff with

I would fold for £20

Standard fold here I feel, not many hands villian will be bluffing with in this spot that make any sense, you are almost always beat here I think. Has to be Qx or flush here

I'll make another prediction.

You folded and got shown a bluff.

I'm sure thread doesn't exist if you fold and he doesnt show / you fold and he shows a flush/Qx

This.

Although I hollywood a bit usually  ;bumwiggle;

I folded and saw nothing. I recanted the hand to someone else later who said they'd flick in the £71 vs an unknown given the pot size, so i thought i'd write it up here when i got home to get a quick check, i really wasn't 100% sure about my decision at the time.

I don't think he has any Qx here. I think his turn range is flush/straight/gutshots and his random Ax combos too. Part of me wondered whether he'd turn A4/A3 into a bluff on the river after everyone else declined an interest, probably overthinking though

Re-reading the OP you should ask for your money back, the deck is bad :P

aha good spot, genuinely amazed i overlooked that til now :P
