Overbetting the river: Great value or too risky?

[Blaqboygram]

When you’re confident you have the best hand by the river, do you prefer a standard value bet to ensure a call, or do you like throwing out a massive overbet to polarize your range? Wondering how often people actually get called on those.

I feel like people massively overestimate how often they get called on a polarized overbet, especially at the micros where I play. Most players just snap fold anything that isnt the nuts.

I smashhed an overbet against a Neymar squad bettor who could not let go of his flopped set, easiest chips I ever stacked.
