Was raising river a bad idea?

on 28 hands he has a VP of 58 and PR of 15.

All I know is he bet all 3 streets.

I may have raised slightly less... but no, not bad if he'll spaz out and you're ready to call. So now call. If he backdoored a flush, then it is what it is.


Dont raise the river and definitely fold to the river 3bet, he has at least a flush 100% of the time. On the flop it is better to raise and isolate the weak player and play heads up and take control of the pot, makes it easier to play turns and river


WP now fold
