Not my favourite hand here to be honest. I had a tight image, having played very few hands, but my c-bet frequency on flops was 100%- so I was kind of looking for the call. But having been called, I had a strong idea he had top pair from the way he had been playing, though a flush draw was also well within range. The turn, therefore, was a very ugly card and by the river I'm just about certain I'm beat, and have no problem folding in a deepstack structure. I might have paid off a smaller river bet, but in honesty there were almost no hands I was beating.
Key here is the turncard. What's the best play here? I guess I probably should be betting here, but I was too committed to my read of him having top pair, it just seemed to fit. Looking back, I think it's more likely he was on flush draw. If you do bet, how much- and do you fold to a reraise? How much would you have to be reraised to either get involved or fold?
