Re: Value betting with top two

Why didn't you bet the river?
[/ QUOTE ]
I feared a straight. I didn't fear it on the turn because someone would have had to held specifically A/Q or Q/9, but the river gave a straight to anyone holding a Q.
I could have bet one to win two more, but if SB raised and CO 3-bet (I actually feared CO having it more than SB, since he called all the way down), I'm in a really tough spot regardless of if they had the straight or not. I got a chance to close the action and show two pair, and I took it.
I did kinda give the results away, but I wasn't concerned with whether or not I was beat, just whether or not I earned every dollar out of the pot.
RESULTS:
marchron has Jh Kc (two pair, Kings and Jacks)
SB has 5s Ks (one pair, Kings)
CO has Js Ah (one pair, Jacks)
OUTCOME: marchron wins 14.75 BB.
