Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with :jd :as
UTG folds, [color=#cc0000]Hero raises to $5</font>, 2 folds, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: :jc :qd :9h ($11, 2 players)
SB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: :jh ($11, 2 players)
[color=#cc0000]SB bets $8</font>, [color=#cc0000]Hero raises to $38</font>, SB calls.

River: :5c ($87, 2 players)
[color=#cc0000]SB bets $27</font>.
Uncalled bets: $27 returned to SB.

Results:
Final pot: $87

Villain is very aggressive but is not a bad player, does not show down weak holdings and is definitely an overall winner at this limit.

I guess the converter I used sucks...sorry.

Set the converter to the 2+2 settings.

Did you fold river??

[TripSearching]

No I do not think Fold is even an option, its either call or raise.

Why didn't you bet flop? As played calling river is fine.

[TripSearching]

You just call river and don't raise? Why is that? I thought my hand had showdown value but I do not want to get raised as I can not stand a raise with this board on the flop.

[poppingit]

I dont raise because the only hands i beat are KJ and jT, everything else he could have that calls a raise has me crushed. I hate the flop check. Do you usually check flop when you hit because you have showdown value?

Given the odd, it looks like a easy river call.

No I almost always bet the flop in this spot and on further analysis, I definitely should have bet the flop.
