the general rule is ... if u cant stand to get re-raised u shouldnt bet ...

in this case you have a hand that has showdown value... id probly like to see a showdown cheap since he probably doesnt river bet any hand that u beat.

Its all good to say that, but with no "C/c turn, C/c river" its pretty worthless.

Can you expand on this post so it has some content please....

Personally I check the river to induce the bluff from a flush draw but you played it fine. You cant fold this river getting better than 8-1.

If you're going to bet/call river then you might just as well open push IMO.
