    i agree with the check call on river, but my guess just by lookin at the board would be a flush draw and he wants you out of the pot, or he had a set of 5's or 6's which would not make sense really with such a drawy board so i would bet on flush draw.

    id have to put him on a set not knowing anything about him

    the river min raise is very weird tho

    you got around 8k if you fold so its prob the best move ....you cant beat anything but a bluff so muck it

    My guess is some kind of busted draw, probably with a Queen or a 10 in his hand.

    Really, the bet makes no sense at all, and when that happens, you are almost forced to call.

    Ok, let's disprove hands.

    55,66,88,86,85,56. Any of these hands could conceivably limp from the dealer here. Any should strongly raise your bet. If they didn't, and they flatted your turn, they now can't be min raising the river.

    1010, QQ - have to raise preflop

    Q10 - Really, this limped the flop, called your flop bet, then hit, and didn't even raise the turn? Really?? Show me.

    79 Again, doesn't raise the flop or the turn on the flush draw, that is weird?

    9J - Maybe. This is his most likely holding. 2 overs on the flop could call. Hits an open ended straight draw on the turn (though, again, if he had J9dd, he still might flat here). Then, he hit the river, and wants to be paid.

    So, my money is on J9, maybe suited diamonds, maybe not. That being said I think I call here, you have 2 pair, most draws missed here, and the draw that hit wasn't there on the flop. Make him show it to you. I think you are ahead 70% of the time.

    Limping early can be a sign of strength. He thinks you probably missed a draw and your2 pair should be good. QQ is a cooler but KK or AA is what I guess
