Even if Hero would call a river raise I think there is value in the bet. Calling a river raise = I can't play poker

What hands do you expect him to call with?

What worse hands do you expect him to bet with?

He is calling A high and lower pp's. Even worse hands than A high will look you up here.

Oink, I agree that B/F is certainly better than c/c as long as hero doesnt get in the habit of making stupid river calls using some "but i'm getting 6:1" bs argument.

I'm guessing this is for an unknown?

Against a loose passive that might call with Ax or worse then a B/F makes sense. Against a particularly aggressive opponent that will bet when you show weakness but make you pay if he has Qx or Kx, then C/C does in fact, make sense.

Not really. Kx would often put in a raise earlier, and aggressive doesn't necessarily mean they'll valuebet a low pocket pair on this board, or turn their A high into a bluff.

Feel free to enlighten me with the worse hands in villains range that will bet if checked to and not call a bet.

Ok, just reread the hand. So there is busted spade draws. So maybe 65ss, 98ss, T9ss and JTss will bet if checked to. But that is only 4 combos so I still think c/c is retarded (sorry!) against any villain.

Well the point is that it is opponent dependent and that saying such and such move is bad poker is too generalized.

General statements are most often useless but sometimes a play is bad against any kind of villain.

Seriously! You should never c/c this river.

You think Ax and 99-22 is common enough for a bet? That really isn't that many hands. If he's the kind of person that has a betting range on the river wider than that, it makes sense to C/C. If you think it's going to be smaller than that then B/F makes sense. Unless he's horrible, he won't be calling down with much else that beats us.

Although him being horrible isn't out of the question.
