Bet the river?
I was only in this hand because I just joined the table and posted the big blind. Do I bet this river?
Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) Preflop: Hero is CO with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.5. UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, MP3 folds, Hero (poster) checks, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Bet it. Queens up is going to be good here a lot, and nobody has given you much of a reason to think it isn't.

Re: Bet the river?
I would check it due to the 4 opponents. If it was 3 or less I would bet, but 4 is just enough to cause me concern that someone is waiting for a made flush check raise. Perhaps this thinking is a bit weak, but it's my standard guideline. It certainly is a close call IMO.

Re: Bet the river?
IMO With that many callers don't you have to put someone on a flush draw looking for a c/r. Since hero has been firing the whole way?
Not that it would be a good place to c/r since its unlikely anyone would cold call 2 bets. But I've seen people do. |

Re: Bet the river?
Easy river bet. In the long run, you'll see lots of one-pair and worse two-pair hands call you -- enough to justify getting checkraised here every now and then to a flush.

Re: Bet the river?
This is hardly an easy river bet, and you are wrong IMO.
