Default Re: 2 very thin value river raise possibilities

Hand 1:
Sometimes I bet the turn here -depends on how likely he will fold. This is for protection vs overcard broadway and to charge fdraw/str8 draws. Also this allows us to check behind in position.

Vs. Better aggro players and as an earlier poster mentioned our hand has showdown value so a check on the turn is fine too. River I call but expect to be beaten alot -I'm certainly not re-opening the betting on 4 to a str8 flush river with top set -what hands would call that u beat if u were in their situation facing a raise with a lower set/2pair ?

Hand 2: I bet 3 too and agree with others that say this but I almost always bet 3. Firstly my hand value doesn't affect my cbet size - only flop texture and ability to get AI by the river.

On the river I call - the flush got there but we beat QJ and other hands -after all we did PFR+cbet then check turn so they may put us on nothing.
