JJ - keep betting?

[LKJ]

Typical Party 2/4

Dealt J /images/graemlins/diamond.gifJ /images/graemlins/heart.gif in EP.

UTG calls. I raise, CO calls two cold, blinds and UTG call. Five to the flop.

Flop: 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif3 /images/graemlins/heart.gif9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif

Checked to me, I bet, SB and CO call. Three to the turn.

Turn: 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

Harmless enough. SB checks, I bet, both call.

River: 9 /images/graemlins/club.gif

Not exactly a card I wanted to see. SB checks. Should I still bet here?

Of course you should bet. No one has raised you yet. Unless these guys are really passive I would have expected a raise from anyone with top pair on flop or turn. So bet. Even if they are passive, I'd still bet.

I dont think its an automatic bet. If somebody has a busted flush they aren't going to call your bet anyways. When the 9 comes on the river, I don't think A2 or A3 is going to call you either, but we are talking about Party here so I guess you never know. I just want to add that in this particular game, I would probably bet also, but only after considering the quality of the other two players.
