Do you think it is a mistake that I did not bet the river here. As I am watching the hand now, the flush draw is only draw that this card finishes, but the hand doesn`t look like a flush draw. I think if I had better the river would be much better.

iPoker - €0.20 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

SB: €3.82 (19.1 bb)
BB: €25.39 (127 bb)
UTG: €26.26 (131.3 bb)
Hero (CO): €20.00 (100 bb)
BTN: €21.14 (105.7 bb)

SB posts €0.10, BB posts €0.20

Pre Flop: (pot: €0.30) Hero has J♦: A♥:
UTG raises to €0.50, Hero calls €0.50, 2 folds, BB calls €0.30

Flop: (€1.60, 3 players) 7♠: 3♦: J♣:
BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets €0.80, BB raises to €1.60, fold, Hero calls €0.80

Turn: (€4.80, 2 players) J♠:
BB checks, Hero bets €2.60, BB calls €2.60

River: (€10.00, 2 players) Q♠:
BB checks, Hero checks

Results: €10.00 pot (€0.66 rake)
Final Board: 7♠: 3♦: J♣: J♠: Q♠:

Nope -- IMO checking back is best.
You bet to get worse to call or better to fold.
With a paired board, and a possible made flush, what worse would call?
What better would fold?

I'm not a coach though, so I'm curious to hear what others think.

I guess it is possible to get some people to call with any two if you bet really small, but then you need to be prepared for when -- or if -- they raise your small bet by a large amount.

Cheers,
VS

I'd rather bet weak Jx OTT than AJ.
River check is quite nitty imo.

I fold preflop, AJo vs MP open, if oppo fold vs 3bet you can 3bet in bluff with blockers.

I think 3bet bluff will be better preflop. AJs can be call against vs. 2,5x open.

mostly folding pre as well sometimes 3bet but as played id really want to value bet the river but not sure on the sizing and not to sure whether it's to thin or not tbh.
