UTG+1 with T /images/graemlins/heart.gifT /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

I raise, MP1 calls,

Flop 9 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif4 /images/graemlins/diamond.gifA /images/graemlins/heart.gif

I bet, MP1 calls,

Turn 5 /images/graemlins/club.gif

I bet, MP1 calls

River A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

I bet, MP1 raises, I fold

I have been betting the river alot and folding to raises. Was this the right time to do it? I happy with my flop bet, but when he calls I dont know what to do, he could have an A, a flush draw or something else

I like check-calling this river myself.

Why?

[brick]

On the river you bet.
You put in a bet.

With what goal?
To get a worse hand to call?
To get a better hand to fold?

A worse hand may call a small % of the time, but may bluff raise a small % of the time.
A better hand would fold about exactly 0% percent of the time.

If you think you're hand is good more than 1 in 7 times then check and call.
