A hand a friend and I discussed
 

I am the worst player ever, so a friend of mine has looked at a few of my hands. We disagreed a bit about this one. Button here is pretty TAGgy (22/18/2). BB is a monkey (46/16). Comments on all streets appreciated.

I think you bet this river. Button may not call you with his K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]A, but BB will call with whatever he has.

I bet river, and call a raise. But I don't think you're getting raised.

button.

Re: A hand a friend and I discussed
 

I really think the likely hood of you getting raised is pretty close to nil also.

Re: A hand a friend and I discussed
 

Easy river value bet IMO. Call a raise.

EASY EASY RIVER BET DERG (this makes me lol), LOOK, HE CHECKED THROUGH.

put yourself in button's shoes here and you'll find that the only hand that fits and we beat is AK[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], and he isn't calling a bet on the river with it. sure there is value vs. BB, but it really is a balancing act against the button. i think if we give him a reasonable range, i bet it's close whether or not the bet spent here to get value vs. BB is well spent when button will have us beaten here a decent amount of the time.

i think i'd check raise the flop. if i were sure this guy would bet all his AK/AQ, then i'd really be happy about check raising the flop.
