I would raise the river. I expect to find Q8 more often than QQ here. You guys think villain wouldn't play 8Q or 89 the same way here? So, just calling river is bad... he is never folding a FH

QQ, Q8, and 88 play the hand like this (98 if he's spewy).

We beat one of those.

If this flop was 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

And it checked around.

Then the turn was the 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Then let's say you bet with the Q high flush and got raised... are you calling and then raising a blank river when bet into? No.

The only difference is that there is a chance that someone plays Q8 as if it is the nuts. But that's why we call the river (as opposed to the flush hand where a river fold is usually correct).
