Everything else looks fine. Would you check-fold the river if it weren't a [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]?

Good question. Anything he's value betting beats me, so it's just a matter of looking at pot odds for him bluffing if I check-call. But the line is weird enough that I don't think he's betting ace high here that often, probably going for a free showdown. I'm not sure. Against an unknown at least, I *think* I can still safely check-fold, but it's a lot closer.

I don't think betting out on the river is any good. It's only a bluff and has pretty much no value betting value. I've not represented a tremendous hand here and I'm not folding too many hands better than mine.

Very good question. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
