Post some reads on your opponent.

With no reads on your opponent, none are given, this is absolutely horrible, and even with a read I dont know how that would change much. What made you call here?

 Without a tight tight read, there is no question about this river call, it's brutal. What was your reasoning here to make the call? Anything you left out in the initial post? As Renton alluded I assume you won this hand... somehow.

Exactly my thoughts. You wouldnt post this hand if you had lost and if you wanted something more than a pat on the back you would have posted reads so we could actually discuss something.

Raise the river if you feel this way. His nothing might very well be better than your nothing.

 btw if you had something like A2s, where you could beat a bluff, this would be a questionable call. But as is, there's just very few hands that Q high beats. If he had something like Qs9s, congrats.

still would be a bad call imo

 I put him on missed spades and didn't think he would bet the river like that if he paired one of his cards.

RAISE the river if you think he's messing around here. This call is just nasty.
fal04: there's not too many hands i won't play for a quarter if i'm feeling it
fal04: i'll play 7-2 off if i feel it
