Looks pretty standard. You have position. Alot of people would say value bet the river, but IMHO, a value bet gains very little here. Anything he is going to call with will beat you (except maybe something like Q9). Good river check.

Good river check.

[/ QUOTE ]I agree. The pot's only 5BB. You bet the turn, so it's too possible he's going for a check-raise here. You certainly could have the best hand, but I can't imagine a worse hand calling you. Just check-down.

Rest of the hand's good, too. You have position, so you bet it. You stayed strong when one overcard fell on the turn. Good. /images/graemlins/smile.gif
