Default Re: What do you think of this river bet???

Do not open limp you are throwing away money. Standard play by aggressive/good opponents is to raise/punish limpers. The reason you are limping is because your hand is not that good... good players know this and will raise a variety of hands making you play your marginal hand at a higher price than you wanted to oop. Don't limp then call four when raising gives you the advantage by being the aggressor and also disguises your hand. The less hands you play oop the less tricky decisions you will get yourself into the more you will profit. As played, fold the flop: you have a gutshot on a two tone flop, even if you catch your 9 QJ is the better straight and the flush also crushes you.
