Currently winning > 3BB in 05/1 but my river agg. is a jopke, 1,18.

I am very chicken to fire again against >2 opponents in somewhat scary board. In HU, I surely fire.

Couple of examples from the 30min minisession I had when waiting for my girlfriend.

I had no reads but they seemed too loose (they always are in this limit)

Hand 1: Bet-fold the river. You might get 2 calls from Ace high.

Hand 2: This is close. I think a check behind is fine here.

Hand 3: Perfect.

If I am honest, this is the reason I don't always bet. I just hate when someone c/r me on the river and then I have to fold a decent hand.... (and I probably don't even fold)

hmm i dont know ,depends on the others,looks like the perfect board for some smart ass to try a cr bluff then you have to call really.Or they could even actually have something /images/graemlins/cool.gif you know some online players will check a great hand all the way to try and look cool when they cr on the river
I like the check behind as it is easier /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

agree with you on other hands
