River value spot

[NinaWilliams]

SB is 36/11/2, a little laggy. BB is unknown. Anyone cap the flop?

I'd cap the flop, bet the turn, and if it played out the same on the river, I'd probably let it check through.

I would bet. It's highly unlikely you are getting CR'd here, and if you do you can fold knowing you are beat. BB seems willing to go all the way to Showdown with whatever it is he holds, and based on the action it seems 1 or more of them will call a bet with a second best holding here. Your only real worry is if BB happened to spike a pair on the Turn or River with a draw.

looks good. I'd bet the river.

With SB being a "little laggy" I cap the flop.

As played bet the river.

would play it that way too. But I also like the way you played it !

I could see SB or BB holding flush draws here. The thing to consider is what hands are we ahead of that will call? Flush draws won't call unless they hold a 9, J, or K. The other pairs that will call are small PPs, 9x, Jx, Kx. Outside chance of 3x, 2x I guess but I think those are far less likely based on the action. We need to believe we are ahead of their *calling* range &gt; 50% in order for this bet to have any value. (If we get 2 callers I think we lose close to 100%, so I'm assuming we can consider the case of 1 caller only, thus 50%)

I bet the river and wait until the turn to pop it again once sb 3-bets.

I like how you played the flop and turn. River is close IMO. I probably check, but I suck at making thin value bets on the river.

I'd make a very thin value bet on the river.
