Default Re: Is this bet horrible?

I don't like the fold to the river bet. He may have been observant enough to realize that the Q and J scared you. If you are going to check, at least call. Sometimes you can bet the river and get MP1 to fold. If you do bet the river and he raises, then you could most likely fold.

What you should have disliked was the turn bet. Two overcards on a 3-flush board should be enough to make you give up on an underpair. Without reads there is no reason to put any more money in this pot. OP showed aggression with the pre-flop raise and c-bet and got called, led the turn and got called, the only chance we have in this hand would require a read we don't have. You are advocating betting AND calling with 4th pair on a 3 flush 3 straight board. Again, without a read that is bad. At the micros aggression without cards is spew.
