TT on an ugly board - 30/60 Stars

I felt stupid checking the river after I did it, but whatever. Not sure what I'm beating if he bets.

call and say, "I always lose these coinflips" when he turns over AK.

cant fold especially when you check

there's really nothing you beat. I'd muck and forget about it

I prefer "omghax" after the J hits, then disconnecting.

Easy call. I don't think AK is likely, nor is a 9. A lot of losing hands would bet in this situation.

Definitely bet this river; you're still ahead of a ton of hands. Even after he bets, QJ is still very likely with something like JT being possible as well.

On the flop,the bet is better than the check-raise,imo.After he 3-bet p/f,there's a good chence that he will raise the flop & you can get in a 3-bet.A lot of times,thay will cap it,looking for a free turn card after you show a real hand with your 3-bet.Just bet into him again on the turn.This way,you hand is less revealed & you get more bets into the pot with a very good hand.

Huh? How about AhQh or KhQh or AhQx.

Yeah, you really do have to bet this river. You're ahead of a ton of hands that have to pay you off and won't do your betting for you.
