I would be happy that he didn't donkbet.

There might be a tiny bit of value in betting if he's crazy enough to call with a pair. Unless he is a super super fish I'm checking here. You could easily get check raised and you pretty much have to fold. He could easily be check\calling a weak spade, straight, etc. At a higher limit I would say it is a definite check but I guess there's a small argument for a bet at 3/6. Not many people like to fold at 3/6 though.

He wont fold if he has you beat. Otherwise he would have folded earlier. Just check.

Without a solid read I check through 10 out of 10 times.

I don't see BB calling without a flush or a straight. He'll fold to a bet. Your bet will win you nothing, but if he does have a rivered flush or straight, your bet will cost you an extra bet if you fold, and two if you call.

I check here too of course...but I don't completely agree with the idea that he wouldn't call with less than a straight.

I'm assuming no read on MP. But I can see a lot of players calling down here with any K or even any Q.
Obviously they're likely to call down with any spade as well.
Even though they COULD call down with a worse hand than yours...there just isn't enough value there to warrant anything BUT checking it through.

i would check here too. Unless this player is capable of folding a 9 or A or low spade its an easy check.

I don't completely agree that he won't call with a worse hand either... you said what I was trying to say better. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
