how would you play this river?

This hand is very standard and I don't know maybe even the river is standard, but I'm not entirely sure whether the correct play is to 3-bet or just call.Hero has 88 in UTG+1Hero raises utg+1, utg+2 cold calls, mp+3 cold calls, bb callsFLOP: Js 8d 6dHero bets, utg+1 calls, mp+3 calls, bb foldsDidn't like all the cold calls, but love the flop and obviously bet at it.TURN: 6cHero bets, utg+1 raises, mp+3 cold calls, hero 3-bets, utg+1 caps, mp+3 folds, hero callsThis is pretty much a money card for me and obviously I love the fact that I'm getting action here when I turn my boat. When he goes nuts on the turn, I put him on a 6 as it's hard to see him going crazy on the turn with anything less than a 6RIVER: 6sHero bets, utg+1 raises, hero?This is actually an ugly card, any other card besides this or a Jack and I'm no doubt capping the river, but given the way this hand played out, I'm not so sure about 3-betting as a 6 is a real possibile holding here with the way this hand played out, even if it's rare that he has quads. Another possible hand is JJ, but I never felt it was all that likely he has it.

I'd prefer a 3-bet because you will usually get paid off by someone with a jack, which statistically is much more likely for him to have than a 6. Probably a bad analysis, but just my 2 cents.

You think he goes nuts on the turn with just a Jack? I mean he capped the turn, I've probably gotta give him credit for some kinda big hand.

No reads on this guy makes it hard. Would he cold call ur utg raise right behind u with a 6 in his hand? a6? If he's a good/tricky player he could have a big pair. I don't know what he's capable of having here since there r no reads of the opponent. I think 3betting here is more profitable. Ur risking 2 to win 1 but I don't think he has ur 8s full beat more than 66% of the time. He could easily have a j or an overpair.The way he's played this hand makes it look like he has a monster, but if he's a bad player he's more than capable of doign this with aj. Imo, it completely depends on the opponent.

He would possibly call my raise with a hand like 67, 68, A6 and etc. I was watching him play hands like K7 offsuit, so it was a definitely possibility. Like I said, when he went nuts on the turn, my read was that he had a 6.You've got the math the other way around. I need to be ahead here 66% of the time here to make it a break even play, because we're assuming he caps when he has me beat and for the sake of keeping it simple will only call 1 bet when he loses.This was in a middle limit game, so I mean I don't think I was playing against a complete idiot, it was really hard to put him on much else other than a 6 to be honest with the way the hand played out.

Oops, it's late. I meant 33%. Well, according to what u said i see no problem with just calling then. If ur read is he has the 6 then trust it.

Maybe AJ or J8 or something similiar.To be truthful, i just skimmeded through the post. I didn't put that much thoguht into it. I forgot that he capped the turn. Whatever. I'm stupid.

haven't read replies, but i just call.statistics shmatistics. yes, i know it's more likely he has a jack, but i don't know many people who *cap* the turn with just a jack (maybe a J-8 suited?).A-6 suited or 6-5 suited or 7-6 suited are very realistic preflop cold-calling hands.this is *usually* a win-one-lose-two situation... just call the raise.aseem

I'd just call the raise, I'd even had thought of check/calling that river, but I can't see any logical reason for a three bet, that's just spewing

I just call here. Unless this guy hates money I wouldn't be surprised if he showed a 6 something. Honestly I wouldn't be all that surprised if he had a couple of jacks in his pocket.
