Default Re: Confused

I'm not sure you can check 6th. You've been representing a made low and a check by you will surely cause him to bet. As for the river bet... Chip Reese in SS recommends against bluffing split pots because someone will call hoping for half and end up scooping. Given that villain has called all the way, he either has a flush draw or a pair. A bet is +EV if he'll just fold 13% of the time, and I'm sure he's more likely to have a busted flush draw more often than that. On the other hand, he might even call with a busted draw if he pairs up. So in this case I think it's ambiguous whether betting the river is +ev. When in doubt, bet i say.
