Looks fine, value bet the river for sure.

Yeah. But it looks like he has a 7 or small PP, so I'd only bet about 12-15.

I don't see the logic of this conclusion. Why do we bet less if we think he has a 7? To encourage a call?

Check behind. You don't want to reopen the betting because you've got one pair. I think that the chances of beating his A high or pocket jacks with your one pair is equaled by the possibility that he's got a weak K (that he'll call with and beat you) or hidden monster (that he's looking to CR).

No way, gotta bet here. I also like to raise these flops, though I can live with either way if UTG tends to multi-bluff or over values TPWK.

A 41BB pot with 2nd pair top picker is big enough - check behind.

I have to admit, it looks like 99-JJ or a weaker Q, but unless you have a read on villian calling down with crap, a value bet is pretty thin here.

River is a definite value bet, especially as you look so weak throughout the hand.

Flop/turn are fine.

Jam, how much are you betting here?

You think a single 7 double barrels this? I'm not so sure. I bet this river about $20 and expect a fold, or lose my stomach and check behind to see QJs.

I gues it depends just how bad he is. Probably just over half pot or just under pot.

People tend to not call huge bets with marginal hands. 15-20 is probably the right amount, 12 seems a bit small.
