Hello, this is my first hand upload, so apologies if anything is not up to standards. I would be curious to hear your opinions whether my river play was good or not. Villain is unknown. Several hands ago his stack was not complete, so I thought he was a fish.

I put him on a lower set or T9s. What do you think? Thank you!

If you put him on a lower set or T9 then just shove OTR

Seems fine the only hand you lost to is QJ.

It seems that the smaller bet attracts more calls.
On the other hand, if you bluff enough they can call the shoves,

But hero reads V for a range of a big hands witch are not likely to fold. So a bet for max value seems justified. This spots occurs rarely and should be fully payed off

Of course, my read could be wrong. What do you put villain on? I believe that check raising here is superior to just betting because the K on the river is a scare card and V might try some bluffs. With the big hands, V will never check behind, so Hero's check OTR is safe.

And now all of a sudden you could be wrong...:facepalm: . I cant put V on anything without information.

When you post hand for analysis it's usually because you have some hesitation. If you are convinced that your play is correct then you dont post the hand at all and never argue with the other members! It's really bad manner! You want an opinion you recieve an opinion!

Peace, dude! I am discussing, not arguing with anyone. I apologize to you, if you felt offended!
I am not convinced about my play, I am only convinced that x/r is better than shove, but maybe x/c was the right play?

Xr small or xr shove?
It depends: if I have a lot of hands played against V I will adjust according to his type. If it’s my first sessions against V but we’ve already played a couple of hands, I will use my table image.
If It’s my first hand against V, I’m likely in this case reraising 2,5-3x. >4x shove will make only sets call (which is good, but not optimal, we also want calls from two pair and non-believers).

CRAI on river is good. It's not that HUGE in relation to the pot size either.

Edit: typo

Your thinking is quite a result oriented. You cant be convinced in anything without information about V. In this case whatever you do will be wrong. This time might've worked. This doesnt mean that is better move.

Anyway without info i prefer standard approach and bet OTR

I would bet the river most of the time. If villain has a set or 2 pair you could face a raise anyway and you want to get value of Tx as well. Those hands would never bet on the river.

QJ is very unlikely to call cbet OTF. He is a player with big ego. So he most likely wins in this hand
