When he raised river here I really felt he had the exact hand A3 or 22.

  1. I dont think he bluffs in this spot cause I can have 44 55 54 74 68 etc

  2. I think he would bet turn with his full houses on this board to get value from 4x, straights, pairs+stdraw/fdraw

So do you think my river play is good here or too ambitious?

Yeah I think this is just a check call bluff catch river. I agree utg will not be bluffing here and you dont beat anything utg would raise with so the re raise is a little to much IMO. Especially at this stage, when your both so deep.

Almost nobody is folding A3/22 there. On choosing bluffing spots, aim the weakest portion of opponents range.

You certainly need to put more money in before the river at this SPR. Leading flop, turn and river is completely fine specially when you don't have that many off suit 4x on your range, don't block his multi street calling region and you have tons of natural bluffs when he doesn't have any 4x. x/c flop and lead turn on a card that improves a lot of your flop x/c range also seems a better game plan.

I agree 100% with this random guy :P . I do also believe that 3way this hand has higher EV by leading, but if you decide to turn your strategy onto xc, I think you gotta check whole range over the river unless you got some floats otf, but I'd just play the most exploitative line here which I think it is to xr otr

Totaly aggree. I think there is absolutely no reason to raise on the river because he will not fold the value hands that beats you and will not call with the worse one´s.

At the same time, I doubt his call is a ev+ call in the long run vs random players. I just feel like players gonna have full houses here almost everytime. Maybe im wrong
