NL50 6max - KQo linecheck

[Everlong]

Villain is 50/11 - 15/50% at showdowns

One of the final hands in a long session and I am not sure if I like my line here - although I obv won the pot. I know the consensus here is most likely to pot the turn. Thoughts?

I would bet at least 2/3 pot on the flop with all the draws out there, two flush draws and a straight draw. River looks pretty good, I think you might get a call from a pair of 10s or 9s that doesn't believe you.

You mean turn?

i like your line except i always bet this river because no worse hands will call your checkraise there. KJ got there (seems unlikely tho) and AK will call or push now. I think i want to keep the pot small here and bet the river.

Yeah, sorry, long day of food and alcohol and losing poker. 2/3 pot on the turn. TY for the catch.

Given your reads and the texture of the board, I really don't like c/r on turn. It allows draws to check behind and if he bets and calls your c/r your hand is pretty much worthless. If I check turn its intending to check/call. I like a river lead but my river c/r range is usually a very strong hand or a bluff (leak maybe?). Its pretty brillaint if he paid you off with an underpair.

thanks for the input folks

I lead river pretty much allways, $12 sounds like a plan. I would usually c/c turn.

[DeathbySuckout]

I don't mind the check on the turn. But I don't like the c/r idea.

I have a personal phobia about chk raising this river. Every single time I do that, with trips, a straight or a flush, they have a boat. So I will usually just lead w/ a half pot blocker here, and fold to a push.
