Turn: (4.25 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.

A player like this will 3-bet the turn with two pair or better almost all of the time. Unless he has JQ you've got him beat and have to bet the river here.

I agree 100% with Westley878. This type of player would not have just called you on the turn unless he was bluffing or semi-bluffing. He may have caught his flush draw, but you MUST still bet this river for value.

The villain will likely call close to any two in the BB, and he will checkraise that flop with any pair/any draw/sometimes total air. When he bets the turn and you raise and he calls we now know the villain is not bluffing so his range is now any pair/any draw. I hope you can see that even with this bad river card you are just too likely to be ahead here not to bet. I would not even qualify this as a thin value bet, IMO this is a standard value bet. If I'm checkraised I am never folding to this type of player, I would just call.

Thank you all for the votes and the replies!!! I just played it the way that (by now) the vast majority -75%- would have played it. I bet-called. I strongly considered checking it down, cause the Qs was so ugly and I had the "1 to win - 2 too lose problem", but I thought, I cannot check down these aces heads up. Villian had Ks8s. Thank you for confirming me, that it was correct anyway. I also think that bet-folding is no option in this limit, against this opponent and with more than 10 BB in the pot HU.
