What is he peeling with that we beat and that calls a bet now but not on the river if we check?

Say he has 9x, 7x or a PP. Then if we check he is prolly gonna put in a bet on the river. If we bet and check behind river it doesnt do us any better. In particular if he just folds now.

If he has Ax and is looking to c/r now or just call down and bet river if we check then it doesnt matter whether we check behind or b/f

This leaves draws like JT and T8s. If these will take a stab on the river then checking isnt that bad against those.


I really cant see what betting does for us here unless we think we have a valuebet on both turn and river.

Important: If hero believes he has a vb on both turn and river then my arguments above sucks.
