I've just recently arrived at the table and doubled up with KK vs QQ. I have no real reads yet, and this hand comes up:Folded to me in the CO with Td7d. I have $205.30.I raise to $3. SB called with $104 left.Flop Jc9hKh.He checks, I bet $3. He calls.Turn Qd.He checks, I bet $6. He calls. (I guess this shoud've been more)River Js.He moves all-in for $95. The pot was $24.What do I do here?!?

I think you fold here, even though there is a chance you have the winning hand. The river card was frightening - he knows that and you know that, so you would have checked it.Personally if i were him i would bet 1/2 pot on the river, but this you a read on him. He is in the situation now where you have not seen his cards, he has won a pot from you now and he will continue to do this in the future!

easy fold. your hand is a long way from the nuts. no point risking it. wait till you have the nuts and with some luck he will donk push again.

[TassieDevil]

correct. soon after he bet $50 into a $7 pot, saying that I was weak.

I like to try a bit of reverse psycology here:Overbet the pot next time it is heads up - providing you have a decent hand of course. This is the best way to get a read off him I think and it messes with his head which is the major aim here

There is no need to try to out play this guy. he will give you his stack. just be patient and he will give. this is a good example of why you should make player notes. on the small sites i play on i lable all the fish all the rocks and all the donkeys. This donkey i would try to find again if he has not lost all his money.

im not too sure this is an easy fold. he has just trip J's a significant amount of the time - therefore higher variance play is call..

Tend to agree with Zero here. Looks strange to me. Hardly the sort of value bet with a FH that looks to get called on the river.I think you gotta call. Maybe he's got AA or AK and was "slow Playing". When you make a huge unbeatable hand like a FH or Quads, you still want to get paid off and overbetting the pot like he has just wont get paid off.Other alternative is Heart flush draw missed. The massive river bet bluff on a busted draw takes down its share of pots as you need some sort of hand to call. You got a pretty good hand here.His later betting seems to indicate he's a maniac. Maniac's sometimes get good cards too but I think you got enough to call him down.I say call.Every once in a while when I have the absolute nuts or 99% sure I have the best hand, I sometimes push all in with a massive river overbet. Some people will look you up because it is such a strange bet, that it looks so fishy or amateur like you don't want a call. This doesn't apply to this maniac who you say did the same thing a few hands later. Call him with something - you got something.
