Curious what everyone thinks is the correct play when checked to on the river (also about my play in general). I logged on PokerPoise: http://pokerpoise.com/viewhand?hand_id=22

Checkout the reads icon for the hero and "OMC VT"

Thanks!

Check. A8-AT are folding a lot, and I'm not sure he even has much of those in his range anyway.

What hands do you beat that are calling?

Checking. Not really many hands that you beat that he is calling with. AT and A8 i guess but you would expect to see a raise on the flop a large % of the time due to the draw, especially from an OMC..

Definitely betting this for value. Nice hand. OMC didn't call 2 streets to fold river. How much you should bet is partially dependent on your image and how fishy the OMC is.

Thanks for the replies guys. I agree in retrospect I should've checked but I see people call extremely lightly with an Ace, especially AX with X of clubs and their club missing on the river.

In regards to the turn, I think its a good bet for value and an easy bet/fold (sure that's exploitable but this guy will not be exploiting). On the turn I think I get called by a ton of pairs holding one club, and also various combo draws.

Thanks again for the comments and feel free to comment directly on PokerPoise - you can add comments to the specific street and decision point comments box (very helpful).

I feel you raised too much pre. Make it closer to $18 or $19..

As played flop cbet is fine
On the turn, good bet for value, nice bet size.
On the river, i check back an awful lot here, if you have a decent read on the player then u can bet for value but what hands are calling you on the turn that is calling on the river??
Any high club? K or jack clubs, sets (prob would raise on previous streets as a fairly draw heavy board)
The only hands your getting called by that your beating is prob AK or A10.
Your losing to everything else.
