River a Boat - Do you re-raise?
Say board is 23453 and you hold 22 (for demonstration purposes); say pot is $150, you bet $50 on the river and get min raised another $50. Would you normally just call or do you still play this hand more aggressively? being you have the low full house and are beat by 44, 55, 32, 43, 53, 33(ouch). Player has been calling your bets all the way down to the turn and only showed aggression on the river. No flush on board. Opponent is TAG and tricky player who will also bluff on occasion.

I guess by the same token, you could look at what the villain has left.
I'm putting a third raise in...
I would assume that you would fold without quads here, especially if the villian has been playing like a maniac.
I think a fullhouse will be min-raising here, you can get more value by at least going 1.5times especially if you lead into him on the river. I re-pop in this specific scenario based on no other information. A min raise to me is an ace high straight. The board pairing on the river is irrelevant unless discussed from my paragraph above.
Already mentioned villain called down to the river before min-raising.
Then I have to go with value town on the straight.....any set or 2 pair is creating action on the turn at least...if not before.
sorry about that: I had $200 behind before making the call on the river; villian has about the same.
funny guy; no I did not fold.
this was my thought here; if I raise again he is commited for his remaining chips so I might as well push or call. I was a little suspicious because he did take some time to decide whether he would call my bet on the river and then he quickly decided to min raise. He was new to the table and had only played probably less than 10 hands. I had played against him a couple times before (a few months back) and consider him to be a good player (usually TAG).
wow, your game is really coming along
Well the key here is what hand do you think he put you on to make that min raise. From what I read you bet every street which could mean any number of things on a co-ordinated board. The fact that he just calls down and doesn't really show any strength being a TAG player sorta leads me to believe that he either flopped the nuts and then when the river paired up and you lead again he wanted to extract value with this straight either the dummy end or the nut straight.
I can't see him playing a set so quietly unless he puts you on absolute air on the flop and figures he is trapping you becaue you won't fold and figures on the turn when it completes the straight you hit your card.
Having played you before, there's a good chance the villain has this image of you... "will fold a big hand if check-raised on the river". What that in mind the villain's range is... any two. So what does that tell you to do?
The correct answer is call. There is no value to a raise.
Either that or he just boated up. Same answer.

History: 1 orbit ago: I doubled through the Villain when I bet 40 into a 60 pot and he raised me to 80 and raised him all in to 280, and he called on a paired board with A2 Top pair no kicker. I had a full house.
I have 44 on the button, 3 limpers, I limp:
Flop comes: AT6: checked all around.
Turn 4: I bet $20 into a $27 pot... BB calls.
River T: I bet 40, he raises to 100, I push all in 547
All in!
