Default Am I missing something?

I had about 20 hands on both, BB was 30/12/1.5/40, MP was 60/0/1.3, and very donkish.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls, MP calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, MP calls.

Flop: (8.40 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, UTG folds, MP calls.

Turn: (7.20 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, MP checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, MP folds.

River: (9.20 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero ?

You're thinking about betting this river?

FWIW, I'd check the turn.

He's not calling with a worse hand and he's not folding a better hand......

Not sure if I'm betting the turn against 2 players. I'd rather check behind and see what the river action is.

At first, I was tempted to advise not betting the turn, but after looking into it, I think the bet was good. Check the river though. BB is likely to have either a monster (that he didn't want to raise on the turn and confront MP with a double bet) or some type of OESD. Not much in a value bet here.

I like the turn bet. I think you take this down a significant amount there. If one calls and you did not improve on the river, there is no reason to bet.
He might have had a straight draw which he will fold.
His other hands are pairs, he called the turn with it although the board paired. He is not folding this river if he has you beat.
Thinking about a worse A? Some of the time he will show you one but it surely wont be often enough to make a bet profitable.

A straight draws not folding here unless it was a gutshot
