$100 - 86s oop with interesting river.

$100 HU SNG - i havent played this opponent before but he seems a bit donkey-like, and his stats are -6% ROI over 500 games

BTN/SB: t1580.00        
Hero (BB): t1420.00       

Blinds: t20/t40

Pre Flop: (t60) Hero is BB with 6s 8s
BTN/SB raises to t80, Hero calls t40

Flop: (t160) 5s 5h Ts (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN/SB bets t80.00, Hero calls t80

Turn: (t320) Ks (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN/SB bets t160.00, Hero raises to t380, BTN/SB calls t220

River: (t1080) As (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN/SB bets t1040.00, Hero ?

My call preflop out of position is a bit loose, and i would probebly fold this most often against this opponent and try to exploit him in position instead.

I turn the flush, and checkraises my opponent. I think river is quiet interesting, because even though we have a low flush, only the Qs, Js and 9s (and full house ofc) beats us. We do check the river, so what can he have in this rivershove? Do you like calling?

if he raises this much in

if he raises this much in the end it looks more like a bluff than value, specially if the guy is a donk ... i would call. but folding is an option

I think that you should be

If you are going to float this flop I think you should be doing it with a hand that is probably live against something made (like QJ). As played, you need to win when you call on this river a little less than 1/3 times. I think that folding here would be a very big mistake.

Edit: I misread the hand when I posted this.

You would fold the flop in this hand?

Sorry, I misread this

Sorry, I misread this hand. I thought there was only one spade on the flop. My response to both things is confusing because of that.

I'll look it over a little later, no time right now.

I think you should raise

I think you should raise bigger on the turn. Pretty much any spade or any board pair is going to have you puking and for the price he is getting at the turn he could be correctly calling you with hands that are far behind.

On the river I'd lean towards a fold. You are getting decent odds but the fact that he flat called my turn makes me think he is drawing or trying to control the size of the pot. I don't think that the typical opponent is bluffing here very often.
