Wow, an amazing number of people claiming they bet-fold, the tough-guy play which you never see at the tables. Pretty sure it's the right answer though.

Seriously, that MP player is either a calling station or has a flush draw. So a bet is good for value and a fold is easy if he raises.

I think folding on this flop is actually the worst play ever. I think checking this river is the 2nd worse play ever. I think folding to a raise sucks too, but is not one of the worst plays ever, just bad. Well played.

Can someone explain why? I thought this was a situation where the opponent will only call with hands that has you beat but bluff with many hands that are beaten.

Note that if the river had blanked off, say another ace, then I think this is still a bet but pretty close. It probably would have made a good "should I value bet" post, as opposed to most of those posts which are actually fairly routine value bets.

Edit: Actually I think that is still a pretty easy bet on the river. Maybe if a 6 came off then it gets closer.
