LoL, just so this thread has some value, does anyone prefer a value bet of 20ish? Pot?

This is one of those spots where I like to try a very small bet in relation to the pot size so that you will be raised by a Queen but still be called by a 9. $10?

I really like that line sir, if I had the 5's full . Here there aren't very many nines left in the deck. Hes either not paying a dime or capable of paying off. He MIGHT make a big laydown with QT QJ to a push.

Don't like it. You fold out the missed SFD and possibly even a weak queen.

I think a lead for $20 is good if villain has a Q he will still come over the top of you. $10 bet may cause suspicion although he's still likely coming over the top.

clear river check.. you aren't getting value by betting cuz there's no made hand he can call with here weaker than QQQ

he'll bet QQQ 100% and occassionally bluff a missed flush draw

His most likely holding is a queen, and he bets that 100%. He doesn't put anything in with the draw if we bet, so let him bluff X amount of the time. Yep, you are exactly right, this is the perfect spot for a river check. Good decision, fellas. Too bad the brakes on my boat weren't working [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
