Any value in a river bet?

Not many hands on SB but he seems pretty tight as are most players on Tain.

Meh, I think you can bet $7 and be okay with it.

Only possible hand villan could have that improved to beat you on the river is KK and you would have known about that by now.

I think you get called by various two-pair combinations here. I don't think a decent opponent would check-raise with a straight here because unless you have one too it is probably going to get checked through, etc.

$7 seems like a good amount to draw some value out of a hand like AQ or two-pair.

I don't see why a jack would bet that river in the SB. If he was BB or somethin I'd be more inclined, but I think he only calls with a jack here.
