My favorite hand, QQ to an A high flop...bleh

[Alobar]

I would post about how I swear to god everytime I get QQ an ace hits the flop, but I dont want to get belittled /images/graemlins/smile.gif (I swear tho, its true /images/graemlins/smile.gif)

anyway, no reads on the guy in this hand. Should I be calling these type of river bets? If I should, should I just go ahead and bet, since hes going to bet if he has me beat anyway. I don't see this board inducing to many busted draw bluffs

I like betting the river here. He'll usually just call with his A but check through a lower pair so you miss a bet when ahead and lose the same when behind. I like the check-call line better when I have A high and there's some draw that missed, usually a 2 flush.

Actually, there's a pretty good missed draw here with the spades...I bet the river anyway.

Bet the river.

With no read on my opponent I check/call here as I think the typical Party 5/10 player will bet a lot of hands you beat and will probably only call you when they're ahead.

If you had any reads on the player at all then I would use those to guide my action.

Exactly. He will bet 100% of the time you are beat, but will not bet with all of the hands that he would have called you and lost with. He most likely has a weaker hand with some showdown value, and there aren't many busted draws he could bluff with.
