Okay. This is a marginal situation for me on river, I will often pay people off cos the pot odds dictate I should do so, but factoring in evertyhing , do u call or fold here...Its during rebuy hour , I am against a guy who according to pokerdb plays low mtts and up till now which isnt long seems straight forward. Go!

Pretty tough for opponent to raise a worse hand than yours. But its a rebuy....so if you feel like you can get a good shot at making the money by winning this pot go ahead, however...if you rebuy how many chips do you start with 1500? If you fold you still have 3,000, which isn't bad.

Push it. If ya lose, rebuy.
I NEVER fold this in a rebuy.

I don't understand the check on the turn.
The check is like saying : Hi, I don't have the flush, do you?
He replies : Yes, I do!
Now, if you are not going to believe him, why ask?!
Simply bet the turn, if he reraise, then you could reevaluate , does he have the flush, or does he have the last A? Does he have a better kicker? Not likely, but he might got a boat by now...
I can't see many hands that you can beat that will reraise you on the river, but you really not showing much strength, however a 500 bet into a 7000 pot is clear sing of weakness and I want to believe I would reraise it with any two cards...
I have no experience in rebuy, but this could easily be an attempt to steal a hugh pot. On the other hand, the guy did show strength throughout the hand...
My gut guess, he got the flush. Can't see him cold calling this flop with two pairs. And also find it hard to believe he'll call a PF raise with 35d

I am calling on turn cos i can boat up plus, hes betting a lonely Ace.
On river , I bet small, cos I know if he has just Ax hes only calling imo.If he has me beat , he ll re raise.
Theres no hand I could think of that calls flop and bets turn which I have beat.....Maybe 4-5 suited? But its highly unlikely he ll re raise only 1.5k on river, cos he should know I am calling for pot odds.
Thanks for the comment btw, I agree I played it a bit wuss like....And he might have felt he could bluff me. Maybe 55 or 33 aswell calls on the flop?
