Re: check/fold river with midpair, small pot
BB has a random hand minus the best hands he raise PF
UTG open limped. So his range is huge here as well
If any of them have a fd why didnt they bet the flop? Those need to be discounted
UTG might bet the flop with A high as well, so discount those.
If any of them picked up a straight draw they prolly bet when checked to.
It is highly doubtfull whether these opponenets put in a bet against a bet with a hand they wouldnt have bet for them selves
Now add all the times someone will take a stab at the pot with a hand that doesnt call a bet. This would be huge for you.
Betting marginal hands for value in tiny pots on dry boards where your opponenets both have HUGE ranges is bad poker
EDIT: Excuse me. Change that to:
Betting marginal hands for value in tiny pots on dry boards where your opponenets both have HUGE ranges of which the vast majority is going to fold to a bet is bad poker. E.g: Betting 22 on 433 flop 3-way is not bad as your average fish is calling any2 cards on that flop.
