Without reads it looks good.HU, some players bet their flush draws out-of-position if they have other things going for them (ok to good low draw, pair/2pair), so you might bet a club river if checked to. The problem is the cap pre-flop muddies reads of post-flop play, since a naked flush draw probably would call down.You have to bet the flop. Turn is an easy bet.

You're going to split most of the time, but If he three-bets or check raises a paired river, it's slightly more likely he has a boat and no low (you win his half) than he has quads (you lose your half). I say put in more bets. By this point, too, the rake should be capped, so that's not a consideration.

i guess rake might be an issue, but if you are almost freerolling for the whole pot, why not cap?aseem

Besides that, to make people to think that I am over-aggressive, stupid, moron... so to extract more values later hands.

There is abolutely no harm in capping this river if the board pairs IMO. Rake will not be a consideration at that point of the hand. Worst you can do is win half, but hte best you can do is win it all, plus there is a very remote outside possibility that a non-nut low would fold on the river. 8)
