I havent posted a hand i a while. I think this one is interesting.

I havent played much with MP, but she hasnt done anything stupid. She has a big stack. And I had checked her PT stats before this hand, 20% VPiP, 7% prf and very aggressive postflop. Not a bad player and probably very good.

I threw a blocking bet out on river. She checks hands I beat (AQ-AJ etc) and bet sets and bigger two pairs. Check-fold the river then? I dont know. I'm only behind to 77, 33, and perhaps AT/A7. But she would probably have raised AK-AJ preflop.

I could also have threebet the flop or bet the turn or checked the river. Right now I wish I had folded the turn but I dont know if that's the best play. I really hate this hand. Lost 1/2 buy in and didnt even get a showdown. I will not be able to sleep tonight

I could probably have gotten a showdown for the same price as my river bet. She thought for a looong time before raising the river

I don't like the turn check-call or the river bet-call.

I'm pretty sure she has 77, but I think the way to determine that is to bet the turn yourself ($40-$50). If she raises that bet, I fold. Similarly, if she calls and bets the river.

I dont mind the turn check/call but I hate the river bet.

If you dont bet that river, she probably bets $100 to $125 with a set or AJ, AQ type hands. You can call and beat TP and lose about the same amount to a set that you lost anyway, but the way you did it, you dont know what she had.

If shes aggressive, she might make that river raise with AQ or AK. I dont want to get blown off my hand when I think theres a good chance I have the winner.

With a drawless board, I think theres a good chance she would flat call your flop bet with a set and then raise the turn, but you have no way of knowing now.

Check-call river.
