Re: QQ w/ a wierd river decision
I'm check folding here. It's hard to know what complete donks are thinking sometimes, but you are ahead of QJ,KJ,98s and behind AJ,KQ,AA and KK (the last too seem a little less likely since you said he'd been aggresive with good hands).
That was a scary river for the hands you are ahead of. I wouldn't expect a bet from a worse hand. He'd probably be as relieved as you just to check it down. If you were up against someone capable of bluffing here, it would be a tougher call but I think a bet means you are beat.
Edit...
OK so now I've looked at the results and you bet out the river and he folded? I guess a bet protects your hand from a bluff, but if you thought that was a possibility why not just check call? I don't see a worse hand calling here. Check calling makes more when he bluffs and loses the same, when he doesn't.
An interesting hand. I'm not saying you got it wrong, but that's what I would have done if I had 10 minutes to think it over.
