an uninteresting hand

Assuming a typical player (no reads), what percentage of the time would you throw in another bet here? (please ignore PF if you don't like it)

I'm inclined to check due to the 6 kicker, but then I've been having some valuer bet problems lately due to some psychological damge sustained by rivered sets and gutshots.

PF is fine after 3 limpers

id bet the river, theres no reason to put him on a nine and most players will call you with a smaller pair or maybe even ace high

He may also give up on 87, which would be a coup.

Yes, it definitely would be...but I don't see it happening very often

Bet. He either has 44-77 or A8.

RIver: I have trouble thinking of many lesser hands that villian may be holding which would call your bet, or many better hands that would fold. If villian chekcraises here, you can only beat a bluff. Betting feels like a bad risk to reward ratio here.

My thought here is that you will only get called by a better hand. I would check and show down

Your getting called by smaller PP's, bet the river.

For this bet to be for value, you have to put him on 44-77. It's more likely he has an 8 with a better kicker. I'd show it down.
