Hero checks...

Good check to induce a bluff or missed value bet?

i like betting, i dont know that we can count on vilain to bet a piece of the board and if he has nothing he may have folded turn, im not too worried about being behind either, i think hell call with more hands we beat than hell bet with, against a very aggressive opponent, this might be better, but im betting here just about every time

[@bsolute_luck]

bet. too many times LP will check behind their weak hands and busted draws. make 'em pay. value bet.

[Nick Royale]

Looking at the stats provided the check sucks IMO. He's passive postflop but seems to be likely to call down with a wide range. Sure, the read is based on only a few hands, but it makes me more inclined to bet. And I was inclined to bet even without a read.

I like a bet here in a blind battle. He probably calls with a wide range here thinking your FOS on this board but would check through a bunch of hands he would call with.

The only reason I would check here would be to C/R. His numbers indicate he is moderately aggressive, so there is a good chance he'd bet a nine or ten. Still, I think simply betting out is better.

I would bet for value.

this is definetly a missed value bet here. Considering how many hands this guy plays, he is around a neutral aggression, so its not like he is a softie. You'll get called by almost any hand that you have beat that can logically call.

I seriously doubt that he'll bluff this river enough with hands that will fold the river to make it worth the check

missed value bet, to induce a bluff the river card generally has to be a danger card.
