    Default Smooth calling villain

    Nothing exciting here, but against a smooth calling opp I always get suspicious of being slowplayed. Check this down on the river?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

    CO ($15.95)
    Hero ($49.90)
    SB ($61.40)
    BB ($54.05)
    UTG ($40.88)
    UTG+1 ($42.61)
    UTG+2 ($49)
    MP1 ($23.65)
    MP2 ($46.95)
    MP3 ($14.15)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    7 folds, Hero raises to $1, 1 fold, BB calls $0.50.

    Flop: ($2.25) Q, 7, 3 (2 players)
    BB bets $0.5, Hero raises to $3, BB calls $2.50.

    Turn: ($8.25) 2 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $6, BB calls $6.

    River: ($20.25) A (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero ????

    (and, yes, the p/f raise is weak...stupid party slider...)

    Raise more pre-flop, on the flop the min bet looks like a draw so I'd check the river. You may loose value from Qx but a ck-raise would be too painful.

    I check that behind. You could bet/fold, but AQ might raise there and push you off your half of the pot.

    I don't see many hands that you can value bet.
