hero utg raise to 10 with JTcc get 4 callers LJ, CO, SB, BB

Flop (50) 9h8h3s SB x, BB x, hero x, LJ bet 15, CO, SB, BB fold hero calls

Turn (80) 4d hero x, LJ 20, hero calls

River (120) Qc hero?

Answer to those who say fold pre, No.
why did I check the flop? BB is pretty laggy he loves to check raise and also I don’t see a cbet getting through 4 players so I decided to try to rake a free card and if someone bets I’ll see how the BB reacts to it
River, ever a reason to lead here? he bet into 4 players on the flop and also bet the turn don’t really think he’s totally weak in this spot unless he has a missed flush draw which probably isn’t going to bet anyways. So many players at 1-2 just give up on the river even when they have no showdown value and just don’t bet thin enough for value on the river and would probably call a river bet anyways

Lead river, small bet from villain on turn so not expecting a lot of agression

What sizing? 2? 25? 30? 45? 80? 120?

Lead with 50 or so hoping he has two pair. You have more TPGK Q combos than he does. Hopefully he will raise. If he has a busted flush you’re not getting paid anyway.

Care to expand on that?

Overall, if your reason is to give some balance to help disguise your early open monsters I'm on board. But I want to hear your thoughts.

Yeah so I’m playing 1/2 and people make horrible post flop mistakes and by only playing AJs+AQo+99+ and KQs I’m leaving money on the table

This hand illustrates perfectly well why JTs is a fine open UTG at 1|2. Villain played the hand about as badly as possible.

Villain's betting looks stabby/weak like he has a pair on the board or lower. Yes, I peeked at the result, but I would still lead 1/2 to 2/3 pot on river hoping he "bluff-catches". You got lucky villain played this hand horribly.

wow guy with AA is a massive donkey
