Default Re: T8o

I would check-call the river.

If Villain had a king, you'd kind of think he'd raise it on the flop, though I guess he could have kicker concerns.

If he has a ten, his kicker probably doesn't play by the river either.

If he has a seven, well, he drew out on you.

Hands like QJ, J9, and 98 are among those he could have been chasing you with. (And if he does have a hand like J9, well, hopefully it's not suited in spades.)

I don't really see a river value bet, and I'm not really happy (after I check) when Villain goes ahead and bets. But an aggression factor of 1.2 isn't really that passive, and I think you'll snap off a bluff (or chop with another ten) often enough to call.

Anyway, earlier in the hand, I wonder about the flop bet. The board's a little too coordinated for my taste for me to want to fire in a 4-way pot with middle pair, weak kicker. But I'm not sure. Maybe a bet is best. I'm curious what others think.
