- Hero has Q9

UTG: (100bb) folds
MP: (200bb) raises 6bb
CO: (150bb) calls 6bb
BTN: (500bb) calls 6bb
HERO: (200bb) calls 5bb
BB: (150bb) calls 4bb

flop(30bb) : K68
- goes check-check
turn(30bb): Q
- Hero bets 10bb, MP raises to 20bb, everybody folds to Hero, Hero calls 10bb
river(70bb): K:
- Hero checks, MP bets 30bb, Hero calls 30bb

- 5-7bb is the standard open in these games.
- MP is an aggro reg fish, opening a wide range. I have reads on him that he likes to sqz postflop with flushdraws in multyway pots, bluffing he's missed draws on the river,
- CO, BB are both big fishes, BTN: decent reg.

What the. Ok pre a lot of people will say fold but in a fishy live 1/2 I don't mind the call OOP for an extra 5bb.

Flop check with intention of calling 15bb or less is ok.

Turn I'm betting 20bb not 10. Betting 1/3 pot is always bad in any situation unless you're putting a stack all in. This isn't tourney poker. Although check/calling with the intention of check/eval (mostly folding) the river isn't a bad play either. Calling the turn for another 10bb is ok given our outs and fairly reasonable implied equity.

River call is actually bad given how the hand played out. I'm sure he c-bets after being the original raiser pre? And min-raising the turn with a draw to bet less than 1/2 pot on the river, does that usually happen? You'd have to have an aggro drunk fish - not reg fish, to make that play. A reg couldn't afford to play so long like that.

I'm with Spooner on the turn bet. You have decent equity against a fishy reg. bet larger and see if you take it down. He has to respect the possibility you have a K if you follow thru with a river bet.

As played, I think you missed an opportunity to make a river blocker. I don't see how the guy has a king. If you've seen the guy bluff raise rivers LDO that goes out the window.
