Definetely bet this river?
Villain hadn't done anything out of line in the past 100 hands here. Should i bet this river, and if so how much. A large bet more than 1/2 pot, or overbet is really only going to get called( by preflop raiser) by 88, JJ. I think that QQ, KK, AA can find a fold here to a large bet. So it's either bet like 35-40 as a value bet or check and hope to induce a bet from overpairs against my AJ. Thoughts on how i played the hand are welcome.

Bet $100, call a raise.

[/ QUOTE ] This is wrong unless you are playing against an absolute ROCK, or if you are percieved as an absolute ROCK. I see overpairs and Js calling all day, and nobody is folding an 8. Furthermore, this is a pretty drawless board, so you can't really induce a bluff from a draw. He probably has a made hand, and he will probably call $100 with it. |

Re: Definetely bet this river?
If you're only planning to bet $35 on the river then you'd be better off just folding preflop. You need to win big pots when you hit in order to justify putting in money preflop as a big dog, and you're not getting it done.

I can see aa/kk/qq/aj getting away from it here for $100. Bet $65 and there's no way he's mucking those hands.
Get paid. |

I like the idea of betting more than less. A lot of times people decide that they are check calling the river regardless of the size of the bet. So I think betting 80-100 is good here. Also bet more on every street.

Re: Definetely bet this river?
I don't see why AA-QQ would be afraid of a large bet. The board pair knocks out the possibility of losing to JT, and I don't see why he should be afraid of an 8. Make it 90.

I don't see how you couldn't bet this river. I'm betting 80-100 and calling any raise. It reeks of QQ.

Re: Definetely bet this river?
Why did you lead this flop for so little?
