Fold PF, I steal with K9o here. I don't know what the hell to do postflop, I feel like he's gonna be leading the turn too often and I don't feel like calling this down without a read, but I don't play 5/10. What was your plan if he led the turn?

Not without a read PF and not in the CO. I think a flop raise is much better then a call. The flop bet could just be a feeler bet. What was your plan when you called? Raise the turn? Call down? Both seem way to expensive here.

I fold pre-flop. I fold the flop. Since you played... I bet the turn and fold to a CR. If he calls the turn bet, I check behind on the river and expect to be best...

Peel for an out or a good card, or fold.

Given that you played it, I'm inclined to raise-fold the flop.

If you call the flop, then on the turn I think you've got to bet if he checks and fold if he bets. (Bluff raise the turn to mimic a slowplay? That's not the sort of play I'd pull in the dark. Give me a read or something first.)

On the river, I think you bet the best hand. I would have just checked behind.

I think I play it the same, and fold to a turn bet. I'm assuming this guy was donkarific, so that's why you peeled. I've been noticing extreme donkage in the 5/10 game lately.

Hero never wins money on the river unless donk is super-donk-donk and calls with queen high. He loses when villain got tricky with a nine or an ace (and he loses when the rake takes another bite out of a chopped pot).

A value bet is when you stand to have the best hand most of the time *WHEN CALLED*.
