Default Re: K-high on the river; A rare bluff from me

[ QUOTE ]
I don't think that he folds any hands that are better than yours.

I think the possibility is very slim that he would fold an A.

If you had 89h then I'd like the bluff.

Does this mean that you'd check the river with our KQ-high, intending to call a bet and win at showdown? Or hoping for a check behind? I would tend to think we'll fold more better/chopping hands with a bet than we'll induce worse hands with a check, namely because I think there are few worse hands that he could have.

I think this is a good river bet, we certainly wont fold a pair, but since the only pair and flushdraw (Jacks, top pair) would not have checked the turn I think it is less likely that he has a pair. I think it's certainly possible that he'll fold an A-high flush draw as well.

Sometimes this is a cheap-showdown move by a bad player with something like 77 though.
