he could also be betting a fair number of Qx hands for value. those hands would be hesitant to call a river bet since i don't have many bluffs on the river after this runout.
this is personally why i prefer checking over betting out, but i do wonder how much of his range is betting on the end and how it responds to a checkraise. i tend to think i'm getting paid off by Qx less than i get "paid off" by rivered 2pair or straight. there's also the small % of the time I get 3bet by a hand that i don't think should be 3betting and now I have to decide between a stupid bluffcatch that will seemingly never win and a stupid 4 bet bluff that will seemingly never win.
