Right number of bets?

Haven't really played any poker all week-feeling a little rusty. I only really care about the river - look good?

FWIW - I'm raising this PF close to 100%.

I think I'm putting in 4 bets on the river. The only concievable hand that a reasonable player could have here is K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

This looks WAY more like a flopped set/2-pair/TPTK (Flush Redraw) to me rather than a bigger flush.

If that's the only hand a reasonable player could have, then why are going 4 bets? In other words, if they are reasonable, then you are beat, and if they are not reasonable, then there are a bunch of other hands that your opponent can have, many of which beat you.

But FWIW, I think KQ[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], KJ[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], KT[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], QJ[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], JT[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], or QT[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] are all possibilities, alongside AA, AxK [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], AxQ [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], AJ.

Even after leaving some room for something a little crazy, I still don't like the range you're up against, especially when you give a little extra weighting to the flush hands.

Consequently, I like Hero's river call.

I would agree if he had limped PF. I just don't see too many players at the Party 2/4 (and I won't give them credit for it if they're unknown) raising these types of hands out of the blinds PF.

I see bizzarre hands raised all the time. Its strange what a 40/10 or whatever actually chooses to raise PF with.
