[6-max] Checked this river, wrong?

Xb river is not a mistake if you think the board is scary.
After seeing the showdown, make a note and barrel heavy vs that villain.

If u are really afraid of being x/r, checking is totally fine imo ♠_thumbsup:

The board is only scary if we put villain on exactly QT or KJ. He has lots of hands like KQ/KT/Ax and even Jx that will be calling a small river bet. Checking back this river is leaving money on the table imo.

Checking is not a mistake but I think I would bet here.

The only reason to be ever afraid of being check/raised on the river is if we think he might bluff. Here villain won't bluff or raise worse so it makes no sense to be afraid. We look at his continuing range and if we have more than 50% equity, we bet.

Bet/fold river IMO. I think you can comfortably fold to a raise here in general (doubtful villain would c/r as a bluff).
