Default River Aggression

I think mines too low. I play full games mostly, and over the given sample have been running poorly. Consider your average Party 10 or 15 game. Full. What should the goal be for River aggression?

Thanks,

lf

Default Here\'s an example of a common turn/river situation...

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (9 max, 9 handed) converter

Preflop: lil feller is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">lil feller raises</font>, MP2 calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (8.50 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">lil feller raises</font>, MP2 folds, BB calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (7.25 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, lil feller calls, BB calls.

River: (10.25 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, UTG checks, lil feller checks.

Final Pot: 10.25 BB

My thinking on the turn was he could have donkbet the flop w/ the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I wasn't sure, however, if his kicker was a heart. When he checked the river, I figured my turn read was correct, and that he had A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] x something else, but wasn't sure if the 3rd player made this a check.

I'm pretty sure this is a clear river bet, and I'm missing tons of value by not betting in spots like this, but I'm looking for outside opinions.

Thanks

FWIW, mine is 1.73. Don't know how it compares to others.

Easy value bet. You'll be good here the vast majority of the time you're called. UTG likely has a weak A or even a 7 with a heart. BB could have just about anything. At least one of them will call.
