i would bet 3/4 pot on flop and turn and shove river. i dont see him smooth calling a set/2p like this on the flop/turn. i dont think he calls w/ A9 on the turn. i assume you checked the river to induce a bluff? if so, you got your bluff and should call. on the whole i think checking the river loses value from kj/kq.

You asked for the bluff now pick it off.

You guys are right I induced the bluff. That shows weakness, I just hate playing big pots with TPTK. So I have to call. Instead of checking, what would be a good bet on the river half pot size ?

if you made bigger bets throughout the hand there wouldn't be much left. i would bet $3.75-$4 on that flop
