Default Hawaiian Gardens 30/60 voodoo magic

Folded to MP, TAG, decent player openraises. I 3-bet with TT. Folded around, he calls.

Flop is Jh2hJx

Check-bet-call.

Turn is Kc

Check-Check

River is a blank (7h I think).

Check-Check.

He shows KQ and it's good.

I would have bet the river. You could get a curiosity call from a smaller PP or ace-high. It really doesn't seem like you're beat here, although apparently you were.

I think he wanted to check raise you on the turn, then the scare card came and he checked through, if you bet the river your getting a curosity call not just beacuse he has top pair, just the fact that he wants to see if you have a flush

No, I am quite sure you're getting a call b/c he has top pr.

what are you talking about? are we looking at the same hand?

i would have personally valuebetted this river, but it appears that villain was attemping a checkraise which is a pretty decent play. sometimes checking down marginal hands like this on the river is the only way you can tell villain that you are not a checkraise magnet.

I certainly would have bet this river. The guy with KQ is a sucker for checking the river.

Hmmm . . Who does he think he is, me? You should have told him who you were.

What percentage of non 2+2ers would check the pocket tens behind after being checked to on both the turn and river?

I think a lot of bad players would check the river. Bad players love to check the river.
