    b/f turn. FD, OESD, are calling turn, so is some Tx.
    All posts are just my own opinion about a hand or a general situation... not advices on how you should play...

    Bet that turn for value please, still plenty of worse hands that can call us.

    thought it might from vil. Tx and busted FDs. i think i should just mostly bet/fold this spot, B-F is a new concept to me, lol working on it.

    I may be wrong on this but in general I don't like questions of this ilk, "what worse calls?" etc. poker players can be pretty creative in handing over money with marginal hands.

    As played the river is still a valuebet IMO as our hand looks pretty freaking weak. If you have T9 or something I'd consider checking it back but there are plenty of hands that can call a small river bet that we beat.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    i really really don't like checking that turn against the type of opponents i assume play these stakes on this site (obviously planning to fold and never feel exploited if we get check/raised on the turn). as played bet like $0.7 and get called by any pair 6+ because we took a b/c/b line and they get looked up like crazy

    getting reemed by fee hikes, ca
    bet turn, bet river.
    i think you'll be surprised at how many calls we get from Tx / heros.
    vils stats indicate he calls too much in general, so yeah..exploit.
