SB: 176.4 BB
Hero (BB): 185.6 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has Q

fold, fold, fold, fold, SB calls 0.6 BB, Hero raises to 5 BB, SB calls 4 BB

Flop: (10 BB, 2 players) 8

SB checks, Hero bets 7 BB, SB calls 7 BB

Turn: (24 BB, 2 players) 9

SB checks, Hero bets 17 BB, SB raises to 38.4 BB, Hero calls 21.4 BB

River: (100.8 BB, 2 players) 5

SB checks, Hero?

This is from Ignition 5z. I think I played pre, flop, and turn fine against the limper. What's my plan on the river? Check back, bet/fold, bet/call? If I bet, how much?

I would not be so excited about valuebet river because I can not see anything we can be ahead that will call us. Very rarely some 9x that minraise turn. But having to think that this minraise is more set face.

check behind IMO

I'm checking back. Villians raise is basically our 3rd street. He should be check raising bluffs and hands better than 1p on the turn, neither of which we want to bet into.

I'm thinking your opponent either has a monster hand or a busted draw. You bet large preflop with QQ so your opponent is probably going to be suspect of you having a hand like this. 5x preflop is too big imo since it is predictable and easy to play against.
