Second pair river choice

These guys are lamos. Passive calling stations.

9 High is the nuts and worthy of a showdown in their minds.

I'll end this with 2 pictures from our hotel window in Chicago. One of our stops on our 5100 mile road trip a few weeks ago:

I suck at multiway rivers so take it FWIW. I bet

I ck, calling stations play TP this way and theres 3 of them and u have one Q so that leaves less worse quasi reasonable hands for them to call with.

I can't decide either so I bet.

And I'm stealing that first picture for a desktop in the near future. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

very nice pictures, beni. almost makes me want to go to chicago.

you may as well bet the river. it's not like you're ever going to call a raise, and you are risking 1 bet to win 1-3 bets. sounds like a good deal to me!

Yep. Against 2 it's closer. Also if there was no 3flush (I'm not scared they have the flush, but a lot of B&M types freeze up on 3flush boards)

Nice pictures. I really have a hard time betting this but I only play online so I can't imagine getting a call on this board from anything we beat. But if you think these folks would call with an underpair or something? I guess a bet would be OK. Fold to a raise I'm sure.

At this table I don't think I would raise PF.

As for the river its a real flip of the coin situation, I believe some of the time you'll be ahead of all their terrible holdings & the other times someone will have a scared weak K or AQ.

I think I tend to slightly lean towards a bet.
