Re: I think I played this hand pretty good...

I think the river is close. I think betting gets a bet in more often when we're ahead since there aren't too many busted draws, and worse made hands will usually check behind. On the other hand a benefit to checking is a better hand might check behind, I imagine at this limit this type would check behind 8x/9x?

Okay, so you check call because you hope he'll bet with a worse hand, such as 4x, 5x, A high or what ever, yes ?
If you're hoping he'll bet those hands, then he sure is gonna bet 8x, Tx and Jx as well.
And if you hope he's going to check with 8x, Tx, Jx he's gonna check with 4x and 5x as well.
So, when we check, we hope that he'll bet a worse hand, but we also hope he'll check with a better hand. I dunno how these can co-exist.
