200NL SB v BB 500BB pot - large river call with 1 pair?

200NL SB v BB 500BB pot - large river call with 1 pair?

Is this a call here blind v blind. I have no reads.

A lot of draws miss on the river obviously, but I would perfer not to have a J in my hand.

What do you do here on the river?

I would call, but i play 25nl.. Maybe thats why no one responded. What did he have? My guess is 65hh


I think you start getting indifferent on the turn. W/ no reads you're supposed to call KQ and AQ and fold this one I think.


flop and turn are pretty standard calls but i think you can fold QJ at least some of the time on the river


Looks like you are just getting value towned by sets and overpairs and maybe AQ. I either fold turn or definitely river if I called turn


I usually try to avoid felting 250bbs+ deep w/ TPGK. 😀 But if I was going to felt, this would probably be the spot. A lot of big bets on a board and w/ stack depth where this guy can have a wide enough range to make it worth it. Have a J sucks, but it's not the end of the world.

How are you over 200bbs+ deep on so if this guy and you have no stats or reads though?

Turn is a standard call assuming SB is close to balanced


I would of left the table a long time ago - why you wanna be deep against the only guy on your left and have a bunch of short stacks on your right? You need a reason to stay at table like this - and being readless, I don't see one.

As played it's honestly a coin flip - can't fault you for calling, but i'm just folding turn and leaving the table.
