Checkraise river, rest looks good. I dont mind a call preflop maybe since these guys never seem to fold postflop, and qj hi isnt the greatest showdown hand. Getting the BB out does have merits tho, so either way is ok I think.

Yea, he bets this river almost 100% of the time. Easy c/r.

Re: Marginal hand?
 

Yes not just because you get more value here, but also it gains a bet if he is on some hopeless bluff.

Do you guys always 3-bet in this situation? I 3-bet usually but sometimes I just call.

Postflop u played it fine. Betting out the river is good, he can't check behind and u only lose 2 bets if being behind (guess that is the kind of player that never would miss a river value raise [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] )
