Default goofball vs. the dude

Commerce 40/80, 9 handed must move game.

Poor player open limps somewhere, I complete in the small blind with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dude checks in the big blind.

Flop K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
I bet, dude raises, limper folds, I call.

Turn 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
I check, dude bets, I raise, dude calls.

River: 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
I check intending to call a bet.

The turn play is meh but the river play is check/fold for sure. You are always going to call here so he would have to be the stupid kind of TAG to bluff in this spot, the only value is if he value bets a worse queen, but trying to pick off a bluff here is basically saying "hey The Dude, you are really really mediocre" which I doubt he is. Check/fold or bet the river for value.

This small of a pot I'm not sure Dude is raising a draw here on the flop.

Not a fan of the turn c/r. Not sure Dude would bet anything on the riv that you could beat after he just got c/r'ed on the turn.

I know there's history that makes this statement pointless, but I hate the turn. All he's folding that you beat is QJ/QT. I think this play is much better if we have 77 or A5.

I usually let people try to 3 barrel me here.

I think betting is okay against an aggro but not good player. The thing about betting here is that we rarely have a hand we are bet/3betting with so it is fairly clear that this is going to be a "lolz no free card" bet. What happens then against a good player is that they'll be like "don't worry I didn't want a free card" and then they raise their flush draw like the wily devil that they are and they get us to fold the best hand.
