Bet like 9 i think. There arent too many combos villain can have with an 8 in it from the action.

bet 9 and fold to a raise?

[Profish2285]

I dont want to say b/f as your odds will be pretty damn good, but I guess yea, you have to. If you think about the other lines, I think b/f is best. C/c cant be too great as I am not confident villain bets for you with worse on this board. I guess you could argue c/f, but that just seems weak to be honest. I dont think many villains bet this river without the straight, but how many straight combos are there? The only reasonable ones I can see are 78 and possibly 89.

If villian calls a bet, hes raising IMO, i dont think villian played AQ/AK this way, this is 2pair / straight if he is calling the river aka hes raising.
I just c/c and hope he bluffs.

You think a villain with those stats has two pair or even a straight here very often?
