No value in a river bet here, the letters WA/WB come to mind. Nothing you beat is calling.

I'd probably fold the turn, but with 2 already in, I don't hate it.

I think bet/ fold to a raise. A jx or qx two pair will prob call not being able to put you on a backdoor flush. Backdoor flush shoulda bet out right?

Two pair calls on a straightening and flushing board? How big of donks do you play with? The only reason to bet out would be to try and fold a low flush
but I don't think the chances of that are very high. Show it down for free and see what we get.

this is .10/.25 I'm afraid that's my usual stakes and yes, there are allooooooooot of donks who would call 2 pair on that board but you prob right to just check it.

The problem is, you also get called by like 3-high flushes, etc, negating any value from a 2-pair call.

Betting this river would be an example of a 'value bluff'. You hope that a low flush or the same straight might fold, but that a set or some other hand you beat might call.

"A value bluff is a bet or raise made by somebody who has a hand with some showdown value who has absolutely no idea what his opponent has and hopes everything will work out all right."

The turn call is fine wth position.
