We hate lots of river cards and I want to blow them off whatever equity they may have. If I’m behind, I’ve got ten outs. If one bet goes in, I want it to go in on the turn. Plus we get put in an awkward spot went we check and get bet into on the river.
It's a lot more awkward to be check raised and face a river bet here TBH. Our hand is easy to play on basically all rivers: we fold an ace and call everything else (except a 3 or 7, which we raise). Yes, even if QJ bluffs 100% on the river, denying the equity to it is superior (since 3/22 times we lose and pay an extra bet to find out), but I see nothing that makes me think this guy is peeling this flop more than optimal. If he starts showing up here w/ like Q9, then yes we should bet.
