    Default I love turning a good hand

    Villain is loose aggro pre & seems passive post flop. 35/21/1 over only 35 hands or so. Has not 3bet yet.
    What's my river play?

    No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG ($50)
    Hero (MP) ($110.50)
    CO ($152.40)
    Button ($109.15)
    SB ($100)
    BB ($50)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with K, Q
    1 fold, Hero bets $3, CO calls $3, 2 folds, BB calls $2

    Flop: ($9.50) 10, 6, J (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $7, CO calls $7, BB calls $7

    Turn: ($30.50) K (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $22, CO calls $22, 1 fold

    River: ($74.50) 7 (2 players)
    Hero ???

    I can't fathom betting this being right, so is this a check/soulread or c/f?
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

    bet fold $28.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    If he's so passive, then I don't mind a smallish bet of around 30ish here on river. I'm not too worried about getting bluff shoved.

    You can get value from AJ and QJ if he's very bad. But given the fact that diamonds are the only draw that missed I think you can pretty safely c/f here. The only things I'd be concerned about would be him value-betting KQ and us folding, but it's unlikely he does that since when you check you can be going for a c/r with a backdoored flush.

    I probably wouldn't fold if he made some weird small bet, but if he bet something closer to pot he likely doesn't have diamonds unless he's very good in which case folding should be pretty easy I think.

    Thanks guys. I like b/f $28 more than $11 because $11 seems too much like a blocking bet. Of course this villain may not have any idea what to do against an obvious blocking bet anyway.

    I may pay off with AJ when I'm the villain.
    But you should prolly keep it small. You're not repping a bluff.
