river value bet checkup

You aren't winning this pot very often, and that was before the king came off. I guess you can use that as a little extra incentive to check here.

Congrats, tyler; you started one of a rare group (I could count them on both hands) of threads where I think the river is not a value-bet. IMO with this many people there's too good of a chance that someone has you beat, most likely from the flop. I check and reevaluate.

Wow. I was going to say I'd call this a place for a bet/fold. Bet on the longshot chance that you can make the weak queen fold (I guess that makes in not a value bet, tho, so you're right, Redd). Fold because if you get raised anywhere it's at least a queen.

C'mon boz...

You would have to slip in the ruffie, goto the bathroom, get a beer and then come back and bet in order to get a queen to fold. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

The last line doesn't make any sense either. They are going to call all the way and then raise a river king with a pair of queens. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
