Hi RyukDash

preflop: looks fine

Postflop: why are you such a short stack? Given the money you have behind go bet/bet/bet AI on g ood boards.

You split with all Ax here so you don't have as much value on the river. What's left that can call?

Thanks for your reply.

Do you think it's a good idea if we check/call river?

I think you run into the same problem check/calling.

At best you hope for a split right and most Ax probably check back.

1> So, are you suggesting Check/Fold would be a better line here in River? Would it be too weak?
2> How about our bet in turn? Since the turn would improve KQ and TJ. Is our bet good?

Thanks.

On the turn you still beat most Ax hands so your bet is fine.

On the river the problem I see is that you have at best a split (if you bet or ck/call). But generally people don't bet the weaker Ax for a split there and they check them back.

So when he bets he either has a bluff or better hand. But since he called flop and turn what bluffs can he have? None in my view.

Sometimes, the opponents bets a very small bet on the river, like 30% pot, 25% pot. Should we call facing such a small bet size in this scenario?

Always look at his range for doing that. It all comes down to hand reading.

In this case that won't apply because your stack is so shallow and you barely have money behind.
