No usable info on BTN

Pacific Poker - $0.10 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

CO: $10.00
BTN: $10.37
SB: $8.64
BB: $10.00
Hero (UTG): $10.00
MP: $14.47

SB posts SB $0.05, BB posts BB $0.10

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.15) Hero has 9♠:J♦:

Hero raises to $0.30, fold, fold, BTN calls $0.30, fold, fold

Flop: ($0.75, 2 players) J♠:5♠:A♦:
Hero checks, BTN bets $0.37, Hero calls $0.37

Turn: ($1.49, 2 players) 3♠:
Hero checks, BTN checks This makes me think he doesn't have the flush, and makes Aces less likely also

River: ($1.49, 2 players) 8♣:
Hero bets $0.98 ??? Since I'm UTG here, the A is solidly in my range
Do I bet here -- and if so how big?
Alternatively just show it down.

Comments?

I think this is a check back spot. I don't think we can really bet for value because we will get called by Ax and better Jacks, I think its a check on the river, if villain was c-betting flop with high card gut-shots none of which will call the river and so I think we would get called by a better Jack often.

Hero was pre-flop aggressor. So villain can't Cbet the flop :f_wink:
If you want to represent a ace i would most like Cbet the flop.
As played i would most likely bluff catch the river. It will be tough to get action of worse or a better hand to fold.

I would fold pre, it is way too loose imo on any stakes unless there are like nits and the BB is huge fish. As played I would still cbet the flop. And yes on the river I also prefer check/call to induce bluffs from his draws.
