Ok the two guys in the hand are both absolutely terrible. Both about 65 / 1 over 70 hands. They call down with bottom pair for 3 street pot bets. A high 2-3 streets, occasionally any broadway card 2 streets, and sometimes complete air 1-2 streets.

I stopped cbetting completely, only did so when I had good equity...


now I'm wondering whether given the above information you think there is more value here.. they have any Qx, Kx in their range but also anything else, who knows 2h8h, Ax, any pocket pair...

should I be value betting this river or is it too thin? roughly how much?

at the time I was concerned about the queen, but the T on the river paired up some of their range T9s,T8s,9xs...

IGNORE ABOVE HAND HISTORY!!!


oh shit!!! I realised I posted the wrong hand. People must be thinking wtf am I on about..


anyway here it is if anyone cares to look now ->

Re: the K8o hand, I think you played it fine. I would have probably bet a bit more on the turn, like $1. I don't see a lot of value on the river, so just take the showdown.

K8 hand is probably fine.

Given your reads I don't mind betting like 1.4-2 in the hopes of getting looked up by something like JT, AT, but really any pair and maybe ace high that's going to be like "lol flush draw" (again, with your read and their vast, vast ranges). It'd be nice to have a better kicker, but on that river we at least chop with any K <K9.

At first I thought this hand was wp, but given your villains I don't think this is thin enough that we should be worried about valuecutting ourselves.

I just take the showdown.
