Default Re: B/F on River .... why?

the simple answer is lots of the time if you bet a guy will call you with a worse hand and raise you with a better hand, so you get more value from your winning hands and you know when you're beat. obviously it depends on the opponent and if you do it a lot, and other factors too. checkcalling lets him check behind weaker hands that he might call a bet with.
