Default Re: Q8s in SB.

Blackize - you really think hero can value bet the river? On this board, especially after hero more or less shouted that he turned a flush, I think that turns our hand into a bluff. Although villain is a donk, I can't see him flat calling in this spot too often, and if hero bets and villain shoves, we've forfeited all our showdown value because now we have a bluff catcher and marginal pot odds.

Most players don't bluffraise the river and they'll call too light so betting has a lot of value to it. He's definitely calling with any J, a smaller flush, and some Ax hands. He might raise with a J or a smaller flush as well as boats and the K high flush. Given the pot odds presented to the hero I think he has to call because villains at these stakes turn up with a naked J or lower flush way too often. If he shoves I think you have a pretty easy fold because your pot odds are terrible and you won't be ahead often enough except against the craziest of opponents.

The river is an absolute must bet. KJ and QJ call all day, not to mention underflushes
