2.6k eff on river. do i dare check and lose value to AA QQ KJ etc hands. or do i play pot control and check call? do i check fold ever??? what about bet fold? if so how much?

[jfish]

i would bet 1400 and prob call a shove.

I'd get a little more money in on the first two streets so I had &lt; a PSB left on the river.

As played.. ugh.

B/f is rough, since it's kind of transparent, but the nice odds the pot will be laying you might prevent him from bluffing, and he'll probably still call a small bet with at least AA and KJ, and could well pay off with QQ/AJ, but might fold all of these hands to a big bet.

If you check, I think you need to fold, every draw got there and I think he checks behind most everything you beat that's not a bluff. Maybe call a small bet, hoping he's going for thin value with KJ or something.

How bad is villain? I just don't see many people calling you here with worse if you're fairly solid.

[Praetor]

i think i would bet fold for $1k or so

[FireStorm]

Thin bet/fold here looks OK. Kh disgusting river card, you're beat here pretty often. I can't imagine too many hands you beat that he would value if you check.

Ya it's really between b/f and c/f here, both being very reasonable. Given villain, I'd lean towards b/f, probably around 1k or so as Praetor said.
