hand one here only sets up hand 2...and my question.

found a couple fish online last night with deep stacks, at the same table . very loose, overplaying hands, and calling down with hands that, imo, were obvious folds.

hand one:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($28)
UTG ($25)
MP ($72.10)
Button ($4.35)
SB ($56.90)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J, Q.
3 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $0.75, SB calls $0.50.

Flop: ($1.50) K, T, 9 (2 players)
SB bets $1.5, Hero raises to $4, SB calls $2.50.

Turn: ($9.50) 6 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $6, SB calls $6.

River: ($21.50) A (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $17.25 (All-In), SB calls $17.25.

Final Pot: $56

let it be said, that i fold to the push on the river. and, maybe, RR the flop. granted, still losing, but playing bottom two passively, imo, is asking for trouble.

anyway, a couple hands later, i figure donkey is laying for me. i am looking for a trap...paranoid? but on this river, do you still value-bet? or is the check-behind good? i figured him for floating me, or hitting his flush. either way, i cannot call a check/raise AI on the river, and figured i would take the free showdown since i did not improve.

Hero ($53.90)
SB ($24.75)
BB ($72.10)
UTG ($4.70)
MP ($28.90)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, J.
1 fold, MP calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1, 2 folds, MP calls $0.75.

Flop: ($2.35) 7, Q, 9 (2 players)
MP checks, Hero bets $1.5, MP calls $1.50.

Turn: ($5.35) 3 (2 players)
MP checks, Hero bets $3.5, MP calls $3.50.

River: ($12.35) 4 (2 players)
MP checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: $12.35

do you still have the balls to bet for value here? or knowing you just stacked, and possibly tilted the guy, do you expect a trap?
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

In Hand 2 I probably check behind the turn. Knowing how passively this guy plays strong hands, I definitely check behind river.
