NL200 river check with top trips
Hey all,
Obviously it worked out - I probably lost the minimum given my hand - but is this river check too nitty? My thinking here was that basically villain isn't going to call anything here that I beat, and he has all the 55 and 66, some 99, and maybe some KQ. I figured check-calling would be the best option hoping he bluff stabs or overvalues something. As a back story, I am non-stop having my strong hands beaten by sets so I am become very aware of betting into dry boards!

If you know Villain is this sticky with any 9x and low PPs (holy moly...), then you absolutely should v-bet this and most likely sigh fold when he raises. I hate this, but unless you know for a fact he bluffs river a ton, I can't see this being a b/c. 8s7s is also a potental hand on his value side.

My check was a combination of intuition that he had a set which was predicated on his preflop call. Second, I assumed that there was little that would call me if I bet but by checking I may encourage them to stab..
Still. 100k hands not on one but multiple fishes. Most fish don't play 100k hands in like 3 years.
