Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$1/$2 Fixed-Limit Hold'em (2 handed)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q:s, 9:h.
Hero raises, BB calls.

Flop: (4 SB) 6:h, K:c, T:d (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

Turn: (3 BB) 5:c (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls.

River: (5 BB) A:c (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets

I think this is a nice play to get him from low pairs.

It's hard to judge without any informations about villain.

But against most opponents it should be a +EV play, in my opinion.


Hi taavi1337,

as played the riverbet is close but sometimes ok. I don't see him having a a pair that he can fold often enough. A K or T won't fold a straightdraw even improved.
So as default I wouldn't bet anymore. If he has a high fold river to bet value it's a very nice spot.

But I wouldn't bet the turn anymore. I don't see yourself ahead and I don't see him fold a better hand. Additionally I would hate to call a check/raise with just a gutshot so I take the freecard and give up on the river when unimproved.
