Shaky top pair

[buhler26]

Only been at the table an orbit or so, no real reads. I think the river is easy, but what about the turn call?

would be nice to have a read on CO, but I call the turn too because he could be doing this with 2 pair thus you have a decent number of outs against him.
I think river fold is good although MP1 is an idiot, he should have gone for a c/r.

Betting the river with a flush or J is crucial.

really? don't you think that CO will bet again, hero will call and you'll be able to c/r both of them a big majority of the time?
Betting out the river screams completed draw and allows hero to get away.

COs range on the turn:
JT(16 combos): 0 outs
99(3): 0
88(3): 0
Q9(6): 3
Q8(6): 6
98(9): 9

This gives 3.1 outs on average. Often our A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] outs will be dead to a fd which seems to be a likely hand for MP1. Plus the combos of Q9/Q8/98 probably should be discounted some. If discounted by 33% we only have 2.75, probably not more than 2.5 given the risk of MP1 having a fd.

Unless you think CO might have gotten aggressive with a fd I would just fold this turn.

River puts four to the straight and three to the flush on the board. Probably not a good time to go for the check-raise. Are you betting this river if you are CO?

depends on my hand, but if I can fold to a c/r from MP1 then yes

He's been calling 4 bets on the flop on the only reasonable drawing hand he can have is a fd. Now the river brings a 3rd [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and 4 to a straight. Unless anyone have made the straight (or already have had it) this will get checked through very often. I prefer betting.
