good response and i see now why the thread has gone so far. you have fallen into a trap and are causing other to as well. here is your incorrect statement:

Thus, the only benefit to betting this river is in hopes that a pair, or two pair, or smaller set will call. But, these holdings are far less likely than a straight or flush.

primarily the last part is wrong. lets go throught the possible hands villain can have:

1st assume the board is 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]j [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]k [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

hands we beat that call:
qj 6ways
10j 6ways
q10 6ways
q5 6ways
j5 6ways
105 6ways
tt 3ways
55 3wyas
jj 3ways
qq 3ways
k5 3ways
k10 3ways
kj 3ways
kq 3ways
k2-8 28ways
q2-8 42ways

ok, im bored and dont feel like goin on, but thats 130 hands you beat that WILL call bc party players suck.
