Mizors don't fold two pair on the river for one more bet.

Or do they?

Results in white below:
UTG doesn't show.

Thoughts? Mucking to the turn raise was probably the best course of action, but a lot of times thats a naked Q semi bluffing.

i don't quite understand this.

i would think that this is a hand that i want to showdown with. if i bet and he has me beat, he probably is not folding, if i do have him beat,, then i don't care if he folds. as such, it seems like a check-call would be best. it costs the same one bet (or less if he checks behind), and i get to SD.

were you trying ot make him fold the winning hand?

[Xaston]

Absolutely not. I thought he was pulling a "free showdown" manuever.

[Kuso]

i still don't understand.

are you saying that his raise on the turn was an attempt at getting you to check on the river so he could check behind?

and i still don't understand why you laid down -- i'm thinking that there are a lot of hands that you beat here. please explain.

you might have to stop calling yourself a mizor if you keep doing this kind of crap.
