Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (10 handed) converterPreflop: Hero is CO with [Q :heart: ], [Qs :spade: ]. 6 folds, BB calls.Flop: (8.50 SB) [A :spade: ], [2 :diamond: ], [6 :heart: ] (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.Turn: (5.25 BB) [T :diamond: ] (2 players)BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.River: (7.25 BB) [9 :club: ] (2 players)BB checks, Hero checks.Final Pot: 7.25 BBshould I have tried to value bet this river? I had been making frequent steal raises from the CO and button when it was folded to me and I was first to act, so I felt that he didn't need to have an Ace or maybe even a king to try to "put me in my place" PF so I capped and led the wayI had shown down some less than stellar hands when making late position steal raises and had been raising almost every pot I entered

I like your line. If the opponent was real loose and would call you down with worse than an A or KK, by all means...bet the river. You're ahead of JJ, TT, 99...
