Sorry for all the hands. This is the last one. I still have trouble with river betting for value and I wanted opinions on this one before I leave, so when I get back I read them. The A on the board and the turn call threw me off a little.

You need reads to be confident in betting or checking here, both looseness and aggressiveness. If villain is really tight, I would check in front, especially with such a weak kicker. If he's loose, I'm betting this. The more passive, the more inclined I am to bet, as an aggressive player would have been more likely to raise the turn. Unknown, I'd bet.
What would you have done had villain bet instead of checked? If you would have called his bet, you are better off leading out. Nit: next time, don't show the river action, especially the fact that he checked it behind you [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

If he's a rock, there's a good chance he's calling you with a better Q, so checking is good. If he's LPP, he could very well be calling you with Jx or 7x, so pony up, grit your teeth and value bet. I'm not worried about the A given the lack of turn raise.

the answer is always yes [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
it's helpful because when in doubt and it's close enough to ask, be inclined to value bet. whether or not it's close enough to ask depends on whether or not you're up against a loose player or a tight one, an unknown, etc. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |
