I'm fairly new to the table and have no good reads outside the fact that the table is a little on the tight side. I think I should have raised preflop. The real question is if this is a classic no need to bet the river 'cause I'm either getting raised or called by a better hand?

3/6 Hold'em (8 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Hard to answer that question w/o a read, I think. I raise it pre-flop, but from there I play it the same.

I think you aren't getting many responses because you played it fine.

No raise preflop?

Easy preflop raise.

Other than that, I like it. Only hand I'd worry about is JT. Probably more like KJ or QJ. Some guys will go apeshit with top pair marginal kicker.

That, certainly, is not outside the realm of possibility.

Yeah, I raise preflop. But in terms of EV, I don't think it is that big a mistake.
