Should I lead the river and fold to a re-raise, or check/call a reasonable bet. Or am I just being a p*ssy?


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($9.50)
UTG+1 ($14.35)
MP1 ($24.25)
MP2 ($48.85)
Hero ($32.75)
CO ($46.25)
Button ($34.70)
SB ($35.90)
BB ($33.10)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A, Q.
4 folds, Hero raises to $1.25, 1 fold, Button calls $1.25, 1 fold, BB calls $1.

Flop: ($3.85) 4, 5, 3 (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1.25, Button calls $1.25, BB calls $1.25.

Turn: ($7.60) 4 (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $3.25, Button calls $3.25, BB folds.

River: ($14.10) 3 (2 players)
Hero checks, Button bets $3, Hero calls $3.

Final Pot: $20.10

Results in white below:
Hero has Ad Qd (flush, ace high).
Button has 9d Jd (flush, jack high).
Outcome: Hero wins $20.10.

Bet more on the flop and more on the turn. c/c river is fine.

Yeah I guess so, I was betting into my draw so I was doing so a little light. I didn't want to scare away the straight draw on the flop, but then the turn paired up.

What kind of straight draw are you expecting after your 5xBB PF raise?
I bet $2 on the flop.

if vilian is holding Ax, or even worse A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, or 56s

and I would bet $3 on flop. If I c-bet regardless of the flop, regardless of I hit or not I bet the same 2/4 - 3/4 the pot. If he calls, and you hit great, bet again and see if he bluffs the flush. You want him to fold right there, or build the pot a bit if you hit your flush.

c/c on river is fine

bet more on the flop and turn. i dont mind the c/c on the river, but with the weak bet and villaiin calling a 5xbb pfr, im betting he doesnt have the 3 or 4 so i may repop the river to $8-$10.

A 4 seems very far out because he didn't raise turn. I think c/c a larger bet is fine, but $3 into $14? Raising is probably better.. maybe even lead the river.

Oh, and as others have said, bet more on flop/turn. You line might be better against a very aggressive opponent (whom you expect to c/r turn with worse flush or to rep flush).

Thanks for all the comments. I think leading the river is a good line. Would 1/2 pot be good there? If he comes over the top all-in, bail? It'd be about $40 pot and I'd need to call about $18 (I suck at math, but looks right).
