Mark_Port157:

Villain is a huge whale. Rofling about playing 42/19 over 60 hands. OPR shows him as new to poker. Been doing all manner of weird and wonderful things. Has ran a couple of weird bluffs, I couldn't remember sizing though. Seems very unlikely to ever fold a pair. A lunatic who is clearly loving the game - active in chat.

We have been warring a fair bit, my image is pretty snug though in comparison.

I think flop and turn are very standard. Bets pot on the river though... enough heart draws and lower houses to hero or fold?

Yeah vs deceived villain call, your image should also be irrelevant to him if he is described so don't worry about that id say

Probably just about easier to justify flicking it in than a fold

Think I snapfold this river, even vs this villain as described, with this sizing it's Qx like 90%, and if he does have Qx and got you to call then he played it well imo
