OK to check/call this river?
I have no solid reads on either player in this hand. It is my first hand at the table. I watched MP play over cards and he was very passive with them. Check calling an AJ down the whole way. I felt he would play an AQ the same way in this spot.
Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP calls, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls. Flop: (10 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB folds. Turn: (6.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP calls, CO calls. River: (9.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> Hero checks, MP checks, CO checks. Final Pot: 9.50 BB On the flop and turn I'm not trying to do anything fancy here. I feel the best line is to just bet out since we're most likely ahead. None of my opponents has shown any aggression so I think our hand is good, howeve they could be on a draw with a KQ or Q9. |

I'd still like a value bet on the river here

value bet.
you will be raised by a better hand virtually never (unless it's a monster) and you will be called by several hands that you beat. |

So it's safe to assume that the best play here is to bet the river. If I'm raised can I find a fold here?

[/ QUOTE ] Depends on where the bet comes from and what has happened. I really don't want to overcall or get overcalled. I lean towards calling for one bet on the river, but it really depends. |

Re: OK to check/call this river?
Yeah, I also value bet the river. The beauty is that unless they just made a straight, they won't raise you. This means you only have to be good 1 time in 3 to show profit, and I would bet you are good here more than 1 time in 3. Plus, it could easily get checked through by hands that you beat and that would call, which turns this into a relatively easy value bet.
