I have $50

MP2 has $100


Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP3 with J J
2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, Hero raises to $2, 4 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls.


Flop: K T Q ($6.75, 3 players)
MP1 checks, MP2 checks, Hero bets $4, MP1 folds, MP2 calls.


Turn: 9 ($14.75, 2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $8, MP2 calls.


River: T ($30.75, 2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero...?

Does it have a positive expectation value to bet the river? How much do we bet if so? What do we think of the rest of the hand?

raise more pre with the 2 limpers.

I'd check behind on river.

I check behind here. I don't see any hands besides QK or AK calling that you have beat, both of those hands I think are unlikely.

get more money in on that turn...

he doesnt have a boat, but I don't know how often "math wise" we'll be getting called here and all the other crap we do to figure the value of betting.

I bet or check here more based on feel, but that's just me.

Well he can't have a boat on the turn but he can have a flush. The turn bet is not horrible although I would probably make it $11 or $12 and checking behind on the river is fine without any reads or tendencies.

We have to check behind. I don't bet more on this turn though. I think the range of hands that our villain will have, given the preflop, flop and turn calls, does not bode well for us. Except for two pair or a set (which maybe we're getting raised on the flop for unless our villain is weak-tight?), AJ and flush beat us, and we just split with any J hand.

Could bet anywhere from 8-15 on the river. But I dont do it all the time. And you should bet, with no intention of folding to a raise. If you would fold to a raise, then its better to check, no?

[RhinestoneCowboy]

I'm checking behind although with the way the hand developed I would put him on AdX. With 4 to a straight on the board the flush draw he picked up may be the only thing keeping him in the pot at the turn.

[No_Neck]

IMO if you don't know what to do if he reraises than you are better off checking behind.
