I had a very similar hand yesterday (hole cards, board, opponents, position, etc.). I bet the turn, had one caller and then whiffed on the river. Against a total unknown (which this opponent was) what is the typical play on the river if checked to? I bet and was wondering if that was correct...

If the pot was laying 7:1, wouldn't typical opponent most likely fold more than that, making betting a better play? |

All you can beat here is 2 overcards/busted draws, and in some cases even bottom pair will call for 7-1. You have a free showdown by checking, and you only have fold equity over hands you have beat anyway |

I'm still unclear as to why checking the river after whiffing is the best play in this case; is there something in SSHE regarding this that I should re-read?
Obviously 2 overcards/busted draws won't be able to call a bet so I'm not really interested in those. It's the lowly middle pair / bottom pair hands that I'm interested in. Surely these hands are folding more than 1 time in 8; does the times they don't call make up for the times I'm called by top pair or better? |

They don't usually call that far just to fold their sm pair on the river for one bet. I'd be more inclined to bet K high or Q high than A high at this point. b |
