1) depends on my opponent. This board isn't exactly conducive to peeling and a lot of players will just throw hands as strong as KQ away immediately.
2) I want to preserve chips. He wants to preserve chips. Betting too thin here can really dent our chip stack, and we'd want to be able to maximize when we actually have a hand.
3) given we arrived at the river this way, we might as well bet. But this is probably the worst hand I bet, so I'd be bet folding it.
4) I'm having a tough time believing a regular player would peel this flop w/ JTs. Is there any reason to believe this is the player type that may float here?
