I would check call. The board is terrible, and it seems like your not getting called by enough worse hands to block bet.

Also i would of bet more on the turn. like t200, just because there are not that many hands that are going to fold for 30 chips more, so you might as well charge them the max.

Do I want them to fold for 30 chips more?

[/ QUOTE ]No, I think he's saying they aren't going to fold so take the opportunity to get some chips in there, since you've probably got the best hand at this point.

[/ QUOTE ]I like the block bet here. I'm not too worried about a call or a fold. I'm worried about whether or not villain will make a bluff that I have a hard time calling - if we check, he just might, if we bet, more likely not. It's an attempt to control the cost of the river so we can show this hand down cheaper. If villain raises, we can be pretty sure we're beat and let it go.

What missed draws?

Diamond draws, I'm assuming. There might also be some weird running straight draws (Q8?) that didn't make it, though a number of more likely ones would have (QJo, J9, JT) and almost any feasible straight draw has at least a pair.
