I'm a 25/17, and if I "bet" this turn, you have 0 outs, 3 outs or 6 outs.

Not betting the turn with hands like T9 or J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is awful.

I bet the river because I knew that it was my only way to win.

That's not true. With so many draws going bust you could easily have the best hand.

This is a classic "no better hand will fold, no worse hand will call" river bet. The quiet checkfold will frequently bring home the pot because your turn checkraise will prevent most players from firing the third barrel when KJ is good. They will attribute your cowardly check to the queen and expect to be called by a small pair.

Yea, this is true, and something that I realized afterwards. I need to fix my in-game impulse driver. It gets busted sometimes.

Only hand that folds the river is K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or worse.
