Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
9 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: $41.75 ... a 44/33 who has been in every pot, usually min-raising pre-flop and making ridiculously small bets on every street.
UTG+1: $49.25
Staresy: $61.15
MP2: $79.05
MP3: $25.20
CO: $18.95
Button: $49.60
SB: $44.85
BB: $48

Pre-flop: (9 players) Staresy is MP1 with K Q
UTG raises to $1, UTG+1 folds, Staresy calls, 6 folds.

Flop: 3 K Q ($2.75, 2 players)
UTG bets $1, Staresy raises to $3, UTG calls.

Turn: 4 ($8.75, 2 players)
UTG checks, Staresy bets $7, UTG calls.

River: A ($22.75, 2 players)
UTG checks, Staresy ....

checks behind because A4, AQ and A3 are all within his range, as is JT and getting raised on this river isn't particularly appealing?
or value bets here because there is a pretty good chance he has the best hand? If so, how much?

 I'd check behind using your reasoning, however it is tempting because villan is so loose.

My initial reaction was to check behind...this looks like a flush draw.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

 I think I would toss out a $7-$10 bet to see what he does with it.. He will call with weaker hands and let you know when you're beat.

check behind. This is not a good spot to reopen the betting. You are folding to any reraise here. AK, AQ, FD and others beat you now. There is just too many hands to be afraid of.
Stakes: Playing $0.10/$0.25 NL

44/33 over how many hands?

Regardless, I think it's an easy check-behind. Although it kinda looks like he picked up a spade draw on the turn like a poorly played QJs, I would still like a showdown.

Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

 Hmm so you guys really all check behind here? Do you all think it is spewing that I am value betting this?

I don't like the title.. 2p against lagg? Where is his agg? Min bet pf, min bet flop, check/call, check.... Looks very loose/passive to me...

C'mon this guy is 44/33!! Sure that is a prety scary card on the river there, but I dunno.. I think checking behind here is losing value in the long run. Like I said earlier, if you value bet say $7-$10, you will know if your hand is goot or not. A loose fish will call you with lesser hands here....
