um, call? i dont think youre gonna get value in a raise with bottom two, or bluff him off a hand here

Re: 5/10 Two pair facing a river bet
 

raise more on flop
bet more on turn
I think river is a value push..it's hard to put him on a hand that has yours beat, and flush/straight draws missed so it may look like a bluff...and get called by overpair or AhQh or something

What he said.
To OP:Are you asking If you should call or raise? Not much value in raising. Any reads on villain? What do his minraises mean etc etc..

Raising for value, and as a bluff [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

And no I didnt have any reads to go with.

"raise more on flop"

Is that because the preflop raiser's flop bet is so small? I would most likely just call on the flop.

The value in raising comes from getting called by something like AhQh, especially with the missed draws out there, as was said already. I'm not sure that it is worth the times you are behind to QT though, close I guess. I would value raise sometimes here read dependant.
